My response was specific to some posters stating they are going to sue people for crossing over their path in a Villages roundabout. Even if this did happen and the injured could prove the other driver was at fault, the vehicles were probably travelling 20 mph.

How much personal injury could you have? It has been my experience doctors and medical professionals will not assist a victim in any hyped-up injuries. They report the true nature of their medical
condition in fear of being sued themselves. In the round about scenario, I see the insurance company paying the claim in full.
