| 1313541 | 2012-11-20 01:35:00 | I would expect the at-fault drivers' insurance to pay it, assuming he has insurance. | inphinity (7274) | ||

| 1313545 | 2012-11-20 02:36:00 | I think the award is ridiculous. Sure she needs the yearly amount to live no problem there. And a few hundred thousand to set her up initially again no issue. Maybe there is also a case for some personal money ok 2 -3 Mil No way is this worth a 7mil lump sum, Sounds like the Brits are going as court-crazy as the Yanks. |

| 1313549 | 2012-11-20 09:04:00 | What the participants get or pay matters little With appeals and other sundries it should rightly all go in legal fees. | R2x1 (4628) | ||
