The car is covered by her car insurance. She is covered by the SAAQ. She would need to sue them and they sue the construction company’s insurance company. I bet the construction company’s insurance company is more eager to settle this than even her car insurance company.

@Ephraim She might sue for psychological damages (or shock as they call it these days). It probably made quite a racket and she might have thought for a moment it was a big piece of concrete and she was going to die. I’m sure some ambulance chaser lawyer (do we have those here? Julius Grey?) would see a case. And often for companies it’s cheaper to pay a few grand and to settle than pay for legal counsel.

@Mare This is Canada, she’s going to need to prove actual damages. She better start seeing a psychologist immediately. In Canada, we pay actual damages. She’s going to need bills.
