…A 50-year-old housewife and her husband, a lawyer, were returning from watching a golf tournament at a local country club. The housewife was driving her Cadillac on a local road when an elderly driver suddenly pulled into her path from an intersecting road. The impact pushed the Cadillac into the on-coming lane where there was a second collision with a pickup truck. The housewife fractured her right foot and right ankle and had multiple sprains, contusions and bruises. She also had a herniated disc in her neck. Her husband, the lawyer, injured his neck, shoulder and elbow. The housewife, in particular, had significant medical treatment. Her injuries interfered with all of her activities, particularly taking care of their twin daughters. After extensive negotiations, both cases settled out of court.
