Going off the road to the right, i bounced from side to side while crashing…

I tried to dodge the car in front of it, and failed to do so. I scratch the rear left bumper of the car in front of me, and i lost control of my car, then spin 540 degrees and hit the concrete wall of the interstate. I was wearing the seatbelt so it was ok but the front airbag should have deployed to protect me from certain injuries. I still feel some pain on my neck and my back 3 days after the incident. *tr
