Jun *, *, I was a passenger in a Lyft that had just turned into the parking lot at * Fuqua St, Houston, TX *, near the IHOP. The Lyft came to a complete stop, and I began to exit from the back passenger seat. As I opened the door, another vehicle sped past in the adjacent lane and struck the door with force, dragging along it until the door was crushed and unable to close. The Lyft was stationary, and I was entirely within my lane, acting as any passenger would. The other driver failed to slow down or yield in a parking lot, which directly caused the collision. The impact jolted me, and since then I have experienced ongoing migraines, neck and shoulder pain, and right knee pain. These symptoms interfere with daily life and require medical care. I was not at fault; the passing driver’s negligence in failing to use caution and provide clearance caused this accident and my injuries
