Kenyatta White says her life has been turned upside down since she was hit by the police vehicle. The mother of two wants compensation for her injuries and more training for officers.

Fulton County police say Atlanta Police Officer Joshua Sieck sped through an intersection at Cascade and Fairburn roads last July. The officer was responding to a call when he hit a car driven by White.

White had her young children in the car. She says she constantly relives the crash in her mind.

“It’s been a major setback in my life. I haven’t been able to move on with my life because I lost my vehicle out there. I haven’t been able to work,” White said. “Physically I’m better, but mentally, I’m still going through a lot of things.”

White’s attorneys say she suffered head, neck and back injuries and — more importantly — emotional scars that have never healed. Her attorneys claim that the city of Atlanta has stonewalled all their efforts to talk about a claim, so they filed suit.

Dilip Baliram Mhatre calmly accepted the compensation cheque of Rs 2.90 lakh from a member of the Motor Accidents Tribunal in Kalyan before limping away on his crutches.

It had taken the system 30 years to decide his case against the New India Assurance Company and a transport firm.

In 1970, a truck operated by the firm ran over Mhatre, necessitating a leg amputation.

In 1983 the family learnt about special accident courts and Mhatre’s grandfather Shankar Patil and mother Leelabai filed for compensation. The case moved at snail’s pace, before finally being settled this year.
