Had my first ride in a Prius taxi today. Kind of like riding in the back of a Corolla. Not the jarring experience the Transit Connect was.
An Escape hybrid for the trip back. Nice ride actually.
Plenty hot out there today.

The tape will probably hang her but all she had to do was say "I thought I dialed 511".
Or 411 or 211. So many similar numbers out there it's going to happen more and more. Not to mention dialing 911 when you sit down with your phone in your back pocket.

you've been through teenage daughters.
I guarantee they would consider not being able to find their cell phone to be an emergency!

I guess my question is whether the woman is suing or is her insurance company suing, to try to recoup what they've paid in medical expenses.
Sounds like from the other link that it's just her. But if she wins, then her insurance company will probably sue her for reimbursement.
It's the great American pastime (suing, not baseball.
)

I believe it is her suing. But, not quite as bad as it sounds (suing a little kid). More like she is suing the LL's insurance company, but to do that, you have to sue a person for the actions.
once that happens, the LL insurance steps in, and they probably assign a lawyer for the kid.
sounds off that it could not be resolved normally thru the insurance (unless she just did not have any?)

I was once on a jury in a trial that was clearly driven by the insurance company. A woman was suing a guy she hit in a parking lot. She lost but took up an otherwise perfectly good day doing so.
