Careless driving
A woman pulled out in front of me resulting in an accident. It was clearly her fault and she said she did not see me. Come to find out she had 4 dogs in the Mini Van with her. I asked the policeman did he think the 4 dogs could have been the distraction that caused her to not see me and he said it was possible. My question is this.. We would have had the car paid off in about 2 years but now I am going to have to start all over again and we really dont have the money to. Even though I did not get physically hurt is there anyway to file a lawsuit for the woman carrying around 4 animals with her?

I don't think so, no. Just like there is no recourse for people who are talking on cell phones in states where that is still legal.
If she cut you off, it should be because it was her fault, and if she was distracted by the 4 dogs, then that is her problem and her insurance should go up accordingly to the accident.
Just make sure the cop issues her a ticket for being at fault then go after her insurance company to make sure they pay for all the damages to your totaled car.
