Actually, I think his mom was driving and Tmushy hit his head on the window.

This means the "idiot" (we'll presume it's the other person and not you) basically made a left hand turn while his light was red? That's the only possibility because there is a 5 second delay between when your light turns red and his turns green and unless you were going like 2mph through the intersection, which obviously was not the case because you couldn't stop for the yellow I don't see how it was his fault. Maybe you ran a red, I can see how you can get yellow and red mixed up.

Oh and there's other ways to avoid contact besides swerving into people, it's called braking.

I have a feeling you are leaving something out in your story so that all of us don't really start to ridicule you. Hope your mom doesn't mind that you wrecked her car.

BTW why would the side airbags go off in a frontal collision (which is what this sounds like)?

First, the scratches and now the crash. Man, better luck next time! If you were inside the intersection, you'd have the right to finish your move even if your light turned red. If someone is in the intersection with you, never assume he or she notice what you wanted to do. Be patience, young man and you'd live longer. :

tmushy

actually
it was yellow for me not red the cop even said it was the other guys fault

i told the office i dont know why i turned right but i just did. his words "the reaction thats actually the right think to do"

its not a big deal really im not pissed i have insurance and so did the driver

Always good to have the LEO on your side. Hope everything is fine and your girl friend is not hurt.

If the airbag needed to open, they wouldve. I was in an M3 in a major accident and only front airbags opened. I hit my head too on window, but I didnt really ''need'' it to survive, but it woulda been nice if it did.

my slk went into snowbank and flipped over, all i needed was a small band-aid for my hand, some glass shattered, no airbags went off, car was totalled, thats mercedes safety there! i'd be dead if was some other car, the front didnt collide directly and no airbags went off, they didnt need to and i wouldve gotten more injured if they did.

Look like your S430 has a little bit of everyone, AMG, Carlsson and Lorinser. How about post a picture?
