A Sneeze and A Car

Back in 2004, Chicago Cubs home run slugger Sammy Sosa put himself on the injured reserve list when he injured his back as the result of a sneeze. Now, if a sneeze can put a world-class athlete like Sammy Sosa on the bench, imagine what a collision with a 3,500-pound car can do to a biker?

What Insurance Companies Do

Well, some insurance companies will hire experts called biomechanical engineers to provide an opinion that a 3,500-pound car colliding with the human body, even at slow speeds, couldn’t have resulted in an injury to the biker. As ridiculous as this may sound, insurance companies really do this. And you need to be ready to combat those kinds of positions if you’ve been involved in a collision.
