there are many issues here. Do you have personal injury protection on your car insurance? Do you have the verbal thresh hold? Both of thos items are options on your insurance that make your premiums lower, but make it harder for you to recover costs and damages. If you do have personal injury protection, your medical bills will be paid. you should obtain a copy of the declaration page for your insurance and consult an attorney.
