If you had common sense, you would understand what’s involved in a medmal case, and thus why “faking one” as this individual was doing, is a pretty difficut endeavor, and certainly not the way to make a quick buck. But perhaps knowledge on a subject before pontificating about it isn’t your thing. In which case, by all means, carry on.

Indeed I can! Thanks for asking, though. I read the post, then read yours, then said the fact that he had to be forcibly prevented from committing one sort of fraud leads me to believe that he would be very likely to perpetrate another type, given the opportunity. And your response to that was to ask me if I can read. Well done!

So yes, I can read, and I totally agree that if “comments” could use common sense, they would, but I’m going to go one step farther and assume that you meant to say “commenters” that use common sense are better than those that don’t.

Do you have anything that’s on point to add to the discussion?

Can you read? The guy wasn’t looking for a malpractice claim at all. He wouldn’t possibly have the damages to get any attorney to take it. The first poster is right, he was trying to create a claim against the bus company.

Comments that use common sense are better than ones that don’t.

And do you honestly believe that this guy wouldn’t make up a claim against the hospital as well? I’m sure that he’d be more than happy to fabricate something else if he saw a chance for cash.

Comments that stay on point are better than ones that don’t.

I’d say fraud of any sort is always a lottery…maybe you can fool people, maybe you can’t.

But Fakers excluded, If you think most people hurt in accidents think they’ve won the lottery, they would probably disagree, and just wish for their old self and life back. Most of the people on backboards probably weren’t really that thrilled, or interested in suing the doctor.
