Motor vehicle passenger with limited tort insurance receives full compensation for his serious injuries.

… A 42-year-old unemployed man was a passenger in his friend’s pick-up when his friend lost control of his vehicle on ice in the bend of a country road. The man was life-flighted to the hospital. He had a concussion, bruised heart and lung.  Although the man had limited tort insurance coverage, his serious injuries, including a serious disfigurement, qualified him for compensation for his pain and suffering.  The case settled for the other driver’s automobile insurance limits plus a significant sum from the man’s underinsured motorist insurance. – MyRecentCases
