If an elderly driver hit you, you may be feeling lots of emotions. Not just from the trauma of having been in a car accident, but the reluctance to bring a claim against an older person.

Filing a claim may then not just help you come to a full recovery but perhaps convince the older driver to look for safer modes of transportation.
