Rap,
Many years ago I was in a very bad car accident when a truck lost its breaks coming down from an overpass and slammed into the driver's side of my carstopped a a red light. The car was totalled. I was unconscious for a short time but unharmed other than a mild concussion and a few bruises - I was wearing a seatbelt and it saved my life.
The truck driver knew his breaks were bad. I had grounds for a major law suit and big bucks. The police cited him for numerous problems with his truck including the breaks. Several witnesses provided descritpitons of the accident to the police, all confirming thatthe truck's breaks failed.
BUT, I was un-American and decided to let it go, get the car replaced (company car) and get on with my life.
Now for the good part - the truck driver sued me. Seems he figured I didn't sue for a reason - no insurance? no license? LOL
Go figure.
