I was having lunch with a former employee of mine today and he was saying that the same kind of thing was happening to his ex-wife after their son was involved in a leaving the scene accident while DUI (2nd offense). He also has no insurance. The plaintif's insurance company is coming after her because she co-signed when he bought the car.
It's real scary to take on responsibility for anyone but yourself these days. That may be why, even though they provide insurance, GLO's have increasing trouble finding alumni volunteers these days.
It's also one of the reasons for such heavy emphasis on Risk Management these days.
