After much consideration, I decided to get advice from several lawyers. I received quite a bit of information and advice as to the steps that I could take to best protect the interests of my family.
The police did not attend the collision site. They would have been the ones laying charges in this case. However, I did file a police report a few days later. The other party had to provide information towards the report as well so they visited the police station separately.
Every aspect of my personal life has been touched in some way. I’ve had to put some friendships on hold, some friendships have gotten stronger. I’m far less active because my old activities involved lots of impact. My work has suffered. My self esteem takes a constant beating each time that I have to admit that I can’t do something.
The Trillium Pathway between Young St and Carling Ave was not completed until Fall 2015. One year too late for me, unfortunately.
