The driver (myself) was rear ended by a Honda civic traveling at approximately 100 mph. Upon impact the back of the driver's seat failed and proceeded to change from 90 degrees in shape to 150 degrees in shape. I thereby lost sight of the road and only had the steering wheel to hold on to. When I applied the brakes I was thrown forward and either smacked the driver's side window, a-post or windshield with my head.
