Some thoughts on the MVA of DH, Hazel and children.
1.All CTP insurance claims no matter weather they occur in the state of registration or interstate require the car to be registered. The laws vary somewhat from state to state, and have changed since this accident occurred however this fact, along with the default of the registered drivers insurance if they exceed the alcohol content/ drug use remain significant factors.

2. If she had a claim she could have been treated, especially in the rehab phase, in a private hospital.
3. IMO there is a good chance that her MVA insurance claim failed. This feeling is based on Hazels current action of not registering vehicles (and DH previously reported drug use.)
BOTH of DH cars REMAIN unregistered. (just rechecked to see if they have decided to register them and she hasn't :thinking
Thank you again sleepinoz #271
4. A failed CTP claim would have forced Hazel to take a personal injury claim against DH to recover her losses, and this would be a hold she would have over him.
Very unpleasant case this one.
