suing someone for having a low IQ as you put it, as a means of "sending a message" is hardly rational when you ackowledge upfront that the person isn't going to get the message.
this country is being ruined by P&I lawsuits and all of the fucking maggot, lowlife, ambulance chasing attorneys that thrive on them.
its not about one person getting bruised. its about all of us bearing the costs indirectly because someone got mad and believed the blood sucking attorney that sold him on the idea of suing.

You're blaming the wrong party. It's not the lawsuit that raises your rates, it's the moron drivers who don't have licenses that raise your rates. Blame our government for not being stricter on criminals. The girl will go to court and get a slap on the wrist and will do it again.
There are consequences for actions in our country. If someone steals money from you, you can sue them. If someone kills someone in your family and causes you pain, you can sue them. It's not the best form of justice, but it is a form of justice.
I do agree that there are a lot of bullshit lawsuits, but there are also legit ones. If a drunk driver totals your car, puts you in the hospital for a month, are you going to shrug, shake his hand and say accidents happen?
