    Get checked out by doctor immediately and make a record of it with bi-weekly checkups. Seriously. And consider retaining an attorney ASAP! Do not tough it out! Injuries from an accident like this take weeks to manifest! Please!

    Man, that sucks so bad. Even though you think you're ok, go get checked out. A similar accident happened to a coworker and he felt fine for a couple days. Day 3 his back hurt, so he went and got checked out... he had 2 broken vertebrae and didn't know it.

    Most reputable injury attorneys won't require a retainer until they get you a settlement. Please do this asap.

    Answer a few questions here. 22yr old driver died at the scene. Was driving a late 90s F150. I did not roll,as the field was muddy so I just slid.

    Dang that’s really sad to hear, the late 90’s early 2000’s F150s have the worst crash test ratings. Those trucks fold up like a tin can even at low speeds. Probably the reason the guy didn’t survive unfortunately.

    I was aware of the ratings on the F150s of that era,but this guy wasn't wearing a seatbelt. He might've had a chance.
