    The gap between those hospitalized or killed on our roads and those with the ‘rona is ever increasing. Past time to close our roads.

    How can you “drift” onto the wrong side of the road?.With drivers like this no-one is safe on our roads, no matter how careful they are. This driver, the only one not injured, needs to drift into Northward to learn his lesson.

      He was probably texting or talking on his mobile. Check his phone records. Non life threatening injury can leave lifetime lasting health problems. Concussions are notoriously create problems later on.

      If a person was involved in a car accident caused by someone else’s carelessness or negligence, he or she has the right to be compensated for injuries and property damage caused by the at-fault driver’s auto insurance company. Another is for an injured person to file one under his or her own insurance coverage.

      After a car accident, filing a civil lawsuit is not always necessary but a person can choose to file one when a car accident case cannot be resolved by way of a settlement or a quick injury claim, the injured person needs to go to court and file a personal injury lawsuit.

      When you’re in an accident with an uninsured driver, you have two options:
      File a legal claim (i.e. personal injury lawsuit) against the driver
      Claim uninsured motorist benefits from your own insurance company
      If you don’t have coverage, a lawsuit is your only option.

      If the driver doesn’t have money to pay a judgment, you’re probably never going to see any of the money. That’s why uninsured motorist coverage is your best bet to receive any compensation following an accident with an uninsured driver.

      But there are 2 ways to recover money from a defendant who won’t pay a judgment:

      Lien on property. If your lawyer learns that the defendant owns some assets, they can file a lien against the defendant’s property so the assets are frozen (i.e. can’t be sold or spent) during the course of the lawsuit. Once a judgment is filed, the defendant isn’t required to sell their property immediately. When they do sell the property, though, you’d be paid out of their proceeds from the sale.
      Payment plan. If the defendant has some money but not enough to pay the judgment immediately, the court could set up a payment plan so the defendant pays you a small amount per week or per month.
