Picture this: you’re a 19-year-old student, working hard to make ends meet. You’ve just managed to buy your first car with your student loan, and you’re proud of it. But then, your older brother, who lives with you and your parents, crashes into your car when he has a seizure. The twist? He’s an alcoholic, his doctors have warned him not to drink, and he had downed six bottles of cider the night before the accident. What would you do? Let’s dive into this riveting tale of sibling conflict, personal responsibility, and financial fallout.

A Sibling Standoff: Who Should Pay for the Wrecked Car?

In a shocking turn of events, a young woman’s hard-earned car is wrecked by her older brother, who despite having epilepsy and being warned against drinking, had six bottles of cider the night before the accident. The crash wasn’t just a blow to her car, but also to her finances, as her insurance rates are set to skyrocket. She demands he pays for the damages and the impending insurance hike, but her parents think she’s being unreasonable since he’s unemployed and on benefits. With emotions running high and wallets running low, this family feud is far from over. Let’s see what the internet has to say about this…
