Single Car AccidentQ: I was injured when a friend hit some ice, lost control and smashed into a tree. I have hospital bills and lost income. My friend's insurance has been paying part of my income and has paid my medical bills so far. Am I entitled to more? A: Yes. Your friend's auto insurance should pay your medical expenses (up to at least $10,000 and 1 year after the accident) and 70% of you lost income (up to $1,250/month) under the Personal Injury Protection (PIP) provision of your friend's policy. In addition, you have a claim against your friend for causing the accident and your injuries. Your claim includes any medical expenses and lost income not paid under the PIP and money for your pain and suffering and any long-term problems due to the accident. Your friend's insurance is liable to pay these amounts, up to the policy limits.
