What consider J-walk and if there should be any ticket issued when a car hit a pedestrian?

by Maya

I crossed a main street 2-3 foot from intersection when the light was green for pedestrian and approached after i made sure both side cars are not moving. in the middle of the road a driver hit me. considering a back bag I fall on face went unconscious till paramedics were there with a deep crack above my left eye(27 stiches)..and lots of pains and arthritis developing points on my spine.(accident date2005).

The cop didn't give the driver even a $20 ticket. is this right?

As I had a problem 2 years before the accident they try to build a case base on carrying depression from then and imagining the physical pain...

(my neck lost the curve and stiff neck is my every day routine.

What should I do ? They say reports are not in my favor and pretty much I am feeling stepped over..

should I try to take the case to court ? won't I be regret?
Pleaseeeeeeeeee help me ... I don't know who to trust.....

Hello Maya,

You want to talk to an attorney! There maybe an statute of limitations to this. Talk to an attorney today!

You need a lawyer, even to know if you can take the case to court or settle with the insurance company of the driver or vehicle owner. You did have some injuries (documented).

I hope this helps.
