I GOT INTO A COLLISION IN LAS VEGAS, NEVADA. I WAS DRIVING MY 2008 HYUNDAI ACCENT, I GOT HIT HEAD ON AND NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. I WAS TURNING AND GOING APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH THE PERSON WHO HIT ME WAS GOING 35 TO 40 MPH. THE SPEED LIMIT ON THAT PARTICULAR STREET IS 45 MPH. MY CAR IS A TOTAL LOSS AND LUCKILY NO ONE GOT HURT. *TR
