That's B.C LIFE. There's just sooooooooooo many more people who are irresponsible and just don't give a shit these days.
My rant is the icbc adjuster deemed my wife at 25% fault and 75% fault to the guy that was driving a range rover with his 2 month expired N license and expired registration that deliberately hit my wife's car while she was fully stopped. And attempted to hit and run in the heavy traffic after the fireworks on Canada day, and cop on foot chased his sad ass down and forced him to pull over. All this was caught on cam. Icbc somehow deems my wife at 25% at fault. It's a fucking joke. It took the idiot 2 month to decide too. She's obviously gonna ask for another adjuster or go to court. Told her to get a lawyer to sue the dude since he wasn't insured.
ICBC is a tyrannical nightmare. I have heard this story so many times and it happened to me as well. Your story is just more extreme in it's ridiculousness.
They want to get both drivers at fault and I think the threshold for premium increases is 25% so that is what they have done to her. They are just trying to make more money on the premiums.
With no competition this is the type bullshit you have to deal with. All of this back and forth is costing taxpayers money too, when it should be an obvious open and shut case against that lunatic.
To make matters worse now you have this "no fault" insurance scam so it is almost impossible to collect a settlement for bodily injuries. Now they just make you fill out one form after the next and drag everything along even further while compensating you a humiliating ammount.
I get the need to eliminate frivolous six figure + lawsuits but now you are not even made whole from your injuries. It's terrifying to be involved in a car accident with ICBC.
