[QUOTE="StephenWeinstein, post: 2351687, member: 426921"] 1. Leaving the country will not help. You will still owe the money. 2. $50,000 seems high for a broken leg. You might be able to negotiate a lower price. 3. If you cannot afford to pay the money and stay in school and make your car payment, then you might have to either (a) drop out of school so that you can work full time, or (b) sell the car. Decisions have consequences. You decided to pay for a car instead of paying for insurance. You decided to go wakeboarding. This is the result. 4. If the driver/owner of the boat was negligent in some way, then you might, possibly, although not very likely, be able to win if you sue that person. If you do sue and win, then the liability insurance will pay the expenses and maybe something for pain and suffering. If you were injured because of your own lack of wakeboarding skills (which seems more likely) and the owner/driver of the boat is not found liable (responsible) for your injuries, then the liability insurance will not pay.
