Who Is Responsible When a Medical Event Happens?
In an accident like this, it is clearly not possible to say that the driver could have prevented it. However, if someone else suffered an injury in such an accident, that driver’s liability insurance would still likely be responsible for covering the losses caused by the driver’s emergency. This can be a complex area, and victims may find it hard to seek comprehensive compensation.
