Please help James fund a new car while he heals

Donation protected
Hi everyone, if you don't know me, my name is James, and on 5/5/22 I was T-boned by someone running a red light, who aggressively tried to yell at me for it, and then fled the scene, leaving behind their car and license plate. I should be angry with them, but I hope that they are okay. Their car was absolutely destroyed, and I'm shocked they were able to get out. 

 My Honda Crosstour is totaled, there's frame damage, and all of the airbags that should have deployed, did so. Therefore, while it's mostly salvageable as parts or to a rebuilder, I can't afford to fix it, and so I've found myself suddenly without a car. I'm adding photos below, to show the extent of the damage. My car is the red one.

My injuries are minor, bruising and soreness, with a minor wrist injury, and I'm lucky that I'm as okay as I am, but I am heartbroken at the loss of the best car I've ever owned. Her name was Garnet, and I loved her dearly. 
 
All funds will go towards therapy, living costs until I can work again, and towards a new car. I have two cats, and I need to make sure that they are taken care of, as well as myself. I'm in a tough spot, and I would tremendously appreciate any and all help that you can give. I can't work until I am healed, but my boss is wonderful and is saving my job for me until I'm feeling better. 
 
The important thing is that I'm okay, but I need to look towards the future, and the uphill battle I have coming. I'm here to fight for it, but I need your help. Thank you in advance for anything you can give. 

Update: I need your help now more than ever. My life feels like it's falling apart. Anything you can possibly give, helps so so much.
