I was involved in a collision at the corner of Biltmore Avenue and College Street downtown between 3:30 and 4 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 6. One of you offered to be a witness. Thinking that the nature of the situation was obvious and clear-cut, I let you continue on your way.
Turns out, unfortunately, I need a witness after all. If you (or anyone else who saw what led up to the collision and is willing to be a witness) could contact me by phone (828-255-7650), I would be grateful. Thank you.

In the insurance company friendly state of North Carolina; ” contributory negligence” will likely be used against you/ in favor of them to void liability.
