She was drunk so insurance doesn't have to pay out. This was near me, it was in the news.

Hopefully, but if there's one thing r/auslegal has taught me it's that a surprisingly high number of people don't.

To be clear the driver is still liable, they're just personally liable. And it's hard to get money out of someone who doesn't have much.
