Cost of ride share vs. owning your own vehicle.

Hello

I have seen posts on here debating whether it's more cost-effective to own your own car or rely on ride share. What's the consensus? I live in Austin and work from home. Public transit is unsafe here. My issue is this (maybe you can relate): People won't stop hitting my car. Srsly, I only go a few years between collisions. Each time, $500 deductible, wait for repairs, send me on my way. The last one nearly killed me. It was a week ago and I'm still recovering. Now I'm without a car and I'm terrified of ever driving again. The question is, if I had the means, should I even buy another car?

Seeking witnesses to car crash

I'm looking for anyone who may have witnessed the crash that totaled my car on Sat May 2, around 4:30 at Mopac and 2244. There were multiple witnesses but I was not in my right mind to collect contact info. There was a woman there who is a physician who claimed that my car "went up in the air." She was so sweet and stayed around for a long while to make sure I was ok. If you were there and saw what happened, please contact me. The police report only listed one witness and I know there were several who approached the scene.
