[QUOTE="GrantGam, post: 1553375, member: 295621"] There is no denying that remaining in the driver's seat was an issue. If you were on the hard shoulder of the motorway, you could always argue that you were in the driver's seat because it's not recommended to leave the vehicle when on the hard shoulder. I believe that's the case? Still, the guidance for diabetics suffering hypos at the wheel does state that you must 'remove' yourself from the driver's seat and unfortunately, you didn't. If I were you, I'd be arguing that the only reason you were still in the seat (unconscious) was because you passed out there as a direct result of untreated hypoglyceamia. That hypoglyceamia only required external medical assistance due to a dangerous, manic and downright psychotic passenger preventing you from treating yourself. Good luck [USER=434478]@MackenzieBammer[/USER] and make sure you get legal assistance! [/QUOTE]
