Contact a Florida personal injury attorney immediately. They can tell you what the statute of limitations is for Florida. This assumes you mean the accident happened in Florida.

Unless you can somehow prove it was the fault of the grocery store, which seems like a stretch, then you will have to sue the vendor who did the damage directly.

The money for your children's injuries is likely be held in trust per directives of the court. Especially if there was significant recovery. You certainly should have access to moneys received for any injuries you suffered individually, if any.

The police may or may not give you a citation which will cost you a couple of hundred dollars. You will be liable to the owner of the other car for damages though your insurance may cover it.

Sure! This is why you should buy enough insurance because it there is not enough you are personally responsible for the balance and real estate and personal property could be seized, as well as wages.
Highway accident, driving 20 below limit due to weather conditions, no other vehicles involved. Ticketing Officer arrived at the scene 5-10 minutes after. No witnesses stopped.

Sure. If you feel that you were not driving in carelessly then you should certainly fight it. You don't want to have an offense like that on your driving record.

There is no differential between "accidental" expiration of a DL and "non accidental." If the DL has been expired less then 6 months then it is generally just a citiation. If it is more than 6 months, then it is a misdemeanor.

I would think that operating a motor vehicle without a front bumper would be considered operating with unsafe equipment and subject you to an infraction/moving violation.

There was no damage & he stated he did not want to call the police. Now he has charged her with leaving the scene of an accident. There was no accident. She is being prosecuted and a trial date has been set. How can she be prosecuted for something that didn't happen?

If the accident occurred in 1971, you are years past the last date to file a lawsuit against the party or parties at fault.

You should file an insurance claim against both driver's. If you were hurt in the accident then you really should have an attorney handle this for you.

You can always sue any party other than yourself for your injuries. The more important question is whether or not it will be worth your while. I assume that you were a passenger in a vehicle that was not owned by you at the time of the accident. If this is the case, you may assert a claim... View More

If you have been sued and a judgment was entered against you for damages, then in addition to some other options, wage garnishment is certainly an avenue that the other side will pursue.
