Quite. The result of my accident was a bill for 4 times that, for a start.

Really?

Was that mostly in compensation for the motorcyclist?

I read of a case where a UK insurer effectively built a small intensive care ward attached to an accident victim's house because she needed 24 hour care for life. As a claims director said "cars are cheap compared with people".

Was he the guy who fell asleep at the wheel, crashed onto a railway line and de-railed a train?

de-railed two trains, but yes it is he.

Wasn't there one a few months ago (maybe more than a few) of a fleet of Ferraris getting pranged somewhere in Asia (maybe Japan?)

Wooliest details ever, but I haven't had my coffee yet, so can't be more accurate
