The guy that hit me must have been crossed eyed. After all this time he still maintains he was on his side of the road.

He is Scottish. About 61 or 62. A bus driver who admitted to have just come off a 12 hour shift. He had been up since 4 in  the morning and was heading home at 5.
Im not putting the guy down by saying this but it was obviuos as he spoke in court he wasnt very bright.
The guy stuffed up. He just wouldnt accept it.
Even though now its obvious he has lost this he still wants to go to court for his personal injury.
If he loses he is up for costs. Around a 100 grand.

Doesn't CTP insurance cover that?

With the new car, get quotes from LSV Lumley's and Ryno; these guys aren't that expensive and it'll save you a world of hurt.

I   wonder about insurance companies .
I was run into at a traffic lights  some years back, I'm  7 or so cars back in the line when in rear ended.
I'm pushed into the car in front of me , and it into the next car.
Cops book the guy who caused it all,
And the NRMA  finds me at fault and cancelled my insurance.
 Figure that one , anyway I could not get insurance after that for quit a number of years.
Saved me a lot of money

Ctp does cover your injuries regardless of blame up to 5000 dollars.
This guy is now going for a payout. The Ctp insurers have to admit i caused the accident for him to win lotto.
Sadly for him thats not the case now. Even though he has a no win no fee lawyer he still has to cover the costs of the ctp i surance companies costs.

Regarding your rear ender. The insurance  probably blamed you for the accident as they reckoned you shouldnt have been so close to the car  in front.
You knkw if you have an accident in a roundabout both drivers share the blame

Is that all? Damn, they're robbing us blind.  There was a news story recently of a mob that robbed millions from CTP with fake events they staged, pushing up our premiums. How many events would they have to stage to receive millions?

Insurance is another form of gabling, your betting on having an accident and getting a winfall, they are gambling you wont, so they can keep your premium with no winfall payout.

I'm betting I won't be the cause, however as seen here, I'm also betting an insurance co. will try to rip me off if I'm not insured and I'd rather they battle my insurance co. than putting me through the ringer.

What people seem to fail to realize about those mobs is that their win fee is enormous to cover all of their losses.

When I heard his  engine I pushed the brake as hard as I could reflex action .Cops measured my wheel  makes and said I was 12 feet from the car in front of me. He pushed me vehicle 32 feet, according to the police report. They estimated he was doing 50 MPH in a 35 zone when he hit me, this was in 1968.

The insurance pays up to 50000 without question. If your injuries are worse they may continue to pay especially if you arent to blame.
I went well and truly over five grand.
What baffled me.is the other guys insurance footed my bill even though at the time the police had charges against me for the accident.
