Hey guys/gals,
I don't post on here lots but I'm hoping getting the word out will help me, and beyond has a past of catching bad guys. I need some help with finding the person responsible for the total loss of my truck, a 2000 Chev Blazer 2dr. I'm posting this on all the forums I hang out around in hopes something good may come my way. I'll just tell the story.
It happened around 8:50 pm last night(March 10) on Highway 1 East bound between Strathmore and Chestermere, roughly a half kilometer west of the East-bound way scale. I was traveling to Moose Jaw with my brother, girlfriend and 2 dogs. I switch lanes into the passing lane to pass semi truck when I notice a set of headlights oncoming in my lane. I tried to swerve the right to get behind the semi trailer but wasn't fast enough and the oncoming car clipped the rear driver side of my truck. The impact along with my swerve put the truck into a fishtail. Around the moment of impact the semi driver hit his brakes. My truck slid to the right, ass end first, front facing to the left, across the driving lane onto the shoulder. I corrected the slide and the truck whipped to face the right. At this point I think I was along side the semi trailer wheels(because the trucker slowed down). I correct again to keep the truck from going into the ditch, the truck whips back to face left and the front of the truck goes under the trailer in front of the wheels. We then were dragged down the highway, with the nose of my truck stuck under trailer/wheels. Once the tires get over the front of the Blazer, we slide off into the ditch to a stop.
The lady who hit us had stopped and turned around. The semi truck pulled over after the truck was out from underneath the trailer. One witness had parked ahead of us, behind the semi, on the shoulder, the second parked behind the us, and behind her the drunk parked.
I am still in my Blazer making sure my dogs are ok when I hear this lady outside saying "I'm the one you hit driving in my lane!" I go from worried about the well-being of my family to pissed the fuck off. I jump out of the truck see my brother, who hit his head/face on the side window, arguing with her and yelling how she smelled like booz when I step in and start screaming at her that this is a divided highway, not a 2 way traffic road. I had to point across the road to show her the ditch and other vehicles traveling West on the other side of it. This immediately shuts her up, and I hear Candace crying, so I run over to her sitting on the ground beside the truck to look after her. My brother went to get the license plate number, but thought it was the vehicle that parked in front of us when he was distracted by the other witness checking to see if he was OK, since no-one was watching her now, and just realizing this is her fault she got back in her car and took off East-bound. While arguing with the lady the first witness that parked ahead of us, went off to talk to the truck driver who pulled up to the weigh scale to be off the highway.
So now, this truck I just bought with a loan which I have made 1 payment on is wrote off. I didn't have collision(which to my understanding was only if I caused the accident) coverage and my insurance company tells me that since they have no one to go after, I'm fucked, my bank says the same thing, no insurance on the loan either. My only hope is to find this lady or try and go after the truckers insurance for braking, if he hadn't I wouldn't have hit him in the fish tail, I was still behind him. It wasn't until he braked that I was beside him. It's grasping at straws, but I have to try. As far as injuries go, I'm covered for all that.
We didn't even get a description of the vehicle, I think it was a white car, from the white paint on my truck. There should be blue paint on her car from my blazer. The second witness grabbed the first 2 and maybe 3rd letter of her license plate. The drunk said she was from Saskatchewan and this was her first time on these roads. She was tall thin, white, brown, crimped hair, glasses, wearing jeans and a leather jacket from the eighties and a pink smartphone(full face screen looked like). She looked like an eighties crack whore. If anyone knows anything please come forward, I am out $6,000 and she could have killed all 3 of us and my 2 dogs which are like kids to me. People like this need to be caught, judged and Punished before someone dies because of her.
