[NOBBC] car query, not British

[Andy Preston]

Don, you can see that everyone has the same feelings about this jerk and he
should be taken to court.  My good friend and neighbor is an attorney and
handles these type of cases.  He's very easy to talk to and friendly.
Contact me off line if you think she can be persuaded to move forward with a
claim against him.

Guys,

First my apologies for posting this to the British car list.

Here is the story.  A gal who my wife knows had her car destroyed by 
a drunk driver.  He hit her Toyota from the rear going about 80 mph, 
knocking her car off the road and into a field and a tree.  Her car 
had an airbag; otherwise she would be dead instead of injured.  The 
drunk guy is very wealthy and has a history of drunk driving, but has 
enough legal clout to keep out of jail.  And, to make matters worse, 
his insurance had "lapsed" for about a week when he ran into the gal's car!

She has uninsured driver but it's not going to cover all her 
costs.  She doesn't have the energy to go the lawsuit route.  Her car 
is destroyed, and she needs another one.
She is naive about buying a car as the one she had she had owned for 
twenty years.  If anyone knows of an older, preferably Japanese, car 
that is sound and under $3,500, please email me.  Her leg is damaged 
from the accident, so would have to be an automatic.  And she wants a 
car with an airbag again, as that is what saved her life before.

Thanks!
