My brother rear ended a vehicle, he was at fault. No dispute there. The accident report states he was doing 20 mph when he struck the front vehicle in the rear. My brother's car was smashed in pretty good in the front as he was driving a small Kia. The other party was in a medium sized SUV, or Toyota forerunner. The Toyota's bumper was smashed in fairly good, but not too much. The Toyota had 3 occupants all of which are now claiming semi-serious injuries. Most of which are the "gray" are types like head and neck, etc. I'm not saying they are totaling lying, but perhaps stretching things a bit. How close do insurance companies look at vehicle damage before assessing injury liability. Will the fact only their bumper was broke and a 20 mph impact with much larger vehicle be in our favor? Or is it really possible to suffer such sever injury from a crash like this?
