What If I Was a Passenger in a Wichita Car Accident?
By Bradley A. Pistotnik, Wichita car accident attorney, Bull Attorneys, P.A.
Quick Answer:
Passengers can use PIP and may also claim against the at-fault driver—sometimes even the driver of the car they were in.
Two paths
PIP pays first from the policy covering the car. Then we look at claims against the at-fault driver.
Friends and family cases
It feels awkward to make a claim when a friend was driving. The claim is usually with their insurer, not their wallet.
