Can Anyone help me? Auto accident

[narba88]

Two days ago I hit a young man who ran onto my lane very fast. I was in
the center lane. He ran in between idling cars in the first lane. I was
driving approx 30 mph as my lane was clear. I was slowing down approx 100-200 ftfrom a red light which was visible. It happened approximately 5:00pm
clear skies. I was not on my cell telephone and my radio was not on. I was
travelling fom work to home. As soon as I saw something running out
inbetween cars I slammed on my brakes. He got past my passenger side of
car, center of car and then hit my hood and smashed into my winshield
(sitting incar) left side. I have a clear driving record past 3-5 years and not
much on it after that. He flew into air and landed in the clear left turning
lane.

I did not just switch lanes. I was in that lane for at least one or more
miles.

He is/was approx 6'2" and wore approx a size 12-13 sneaker. He was
conscious but not moving. He told plain clothes paramedics he was 12
years old. He didn\'t have any ID or cell phone and was rushed to a local
ER.

I was not ticketed. I believe he is dead- Police will not let me call
Hospital as they say he is minor.

CSI took my car and driver\'s license and said I could driver and gave
me a case # card.

I have approx 3-5 witnesses to attest to the fact that he ran out in
front of me.

I will need therapy as I have never hit anyone before.

Do I have legal recourse against this family as I do not believe they
should collect monies against my insurance.

Thank you

He can be sued if he was acting negligently!

What do the police say about this?

Certainly, you do have, moreover, if you can accertain the cause of his weired action. Does Autopsy report discloses some Intoxication.

He is a minor, so yes, his parents are liable for his Torts.

Thanks,
