Message: [QUOTE="Pablo, post: 3685386, member: 9118"] The injured parties will be compensated fairly under our state's excellent CTP scheme. The fact he was unlicensed has no bearing on that. As an example, let's say I was driving my kids to school and I momentarily turned around to grab a lunch box or something from the backseat and I lost control and crashed into a pole. Who do my kids sue if they are badly injured? Thankfully, it's not me. It is the CTP insurer that I nominated when when the vehicle was registered at renewal. That is the system. Likewise if someone was to crash into the back of your stationary vehicle and you sustain an injury, because you weren't at fault, you are entitled to claim compensation from that vehicle's CTP insurer. If individuals were liable you would need to hope that the at fault driver had the financial means to compensate you which not many people would. That is why this system was put in place. Ezra will face the consequences of the law but not any financial liability for the injured parties. They will be looked after. [/QUOTE]
