tennesseeboy Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Sorry to hear about that. I just settled a lawsuit nearly three years old where a truck driver ran a stop sign and hit me. Fortunately he did have insurance, but they were impossible to deal with. Although I tried to settle the darn thing for a reasonable amount without hiring my own attorney, the insurance company was unreasonable. I just picked up a check for twice what I would have settled for even after subrogating to the health insurance people and my attorney's fee. You might want to consider a provision in your auto policy that covers you in the event there is an uninsured driver hitting you. More and more of that these days, and not just with illegal immigrants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What pissed me off most was the police: "Well, we're not going to arrest him, even though he was drunk, left the scene of the accident, and didn't have insurance, because he's an illegal alien and we don't want to ruin his life by getting him deported." Morons...that's EXACTLY the kind of illegal alien you want to deport! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, a drunk driver killed them, but the situation also provides the foundation on which to make the case that if we took the proper steps to deport illegal criminals, we would reduce the number of crimes -- big or small -- in this country, and likely save many lives.
