Post: Hit by a drunk driver, while driving a rental car...

Posted by Var Young on 12/18/06

Just before xmas 05 I was hit by a drink driver. I had been
driving a rental car, which I had also purchased the
insurance. I live in PA, where its THE LAW to have auto
insurance, I owned/lease a vehicle in PA, however I had
allowed my insurance to lapse..(BOO!! 2 me...I know) In any
case, I would like to know if anyone has been in a similiar
situation. The driver had isurance, but I dont know what it
will cover. My medical bills were covered by the rental
company, since I had purchased it. Since I didnt have
isurance on my vehicle I almost wasnt able to sue the guy,
but since he had be drunk driving that changed. Please help
with some advice. The guy actually owns a few local bars
<--HOW BOUT THAT!! I did seek legal representation, but I
honestly dont think that they doing all the things they
should. I only think that because everyone is asking what
the heck is going on, it should be an opened and closed
case. The police reports shows it, the blood test shows it.
Any advice will be helpful....

Thx
V.Y
