4 years and two +months ago, 12/00, I rear ended an SUV going less than 15 mph causing a couple hundred $ of damage to the other vehicle. He sued me for $500,000 claiming an additional back injury, the first which occurred 1 month prior, and you guessed it another rear ender. Several years after the incident my insurance Co. recognized that this extorter was/is a professional law suiter. The law suit was filed in Baltimore City ALTHOUGH, I don't live in the City, the accident didn't occur in the City, the accident didn't occur while I was working...I just happen to work in the City and the Supreme Court sez you can be sued where the accident occurred or where you live or where you work. Baltimore City is known for it's, award 'em everything juries, Hell, it's not HIS money, he's not loosing anything, it's the big insurance Co. money...they won't miss it. It's OK in Baltimore to commit theft by deception. SOoo, we fight this pro for 4+ years, discredit him, catch him lying on two depostions. His attorney was nervous while the Jury was deliberating yesterday PM and tried to negotiate a settlement with my attorney but, too late the jury returns with a verdict against me for $82,000. Now the good? news is I have plenty of Insurance and have been with the same Co. as a good driver for 30 years and they acknowledge that this guy is a pro and they were up against my beloved Baltimore Jury. SO, and you've been patient, Please, Please, Please keep plenty of room between you and the car ahead, no matter the slow speed you are traveling. These types of miscreatants breed and live everywhere.
