I think my car insurance policy actually does detail what they believe every part of your body + your life to be worth, it might be my old policy though. From memory an arm was £2,000

[Edit]: found the policy: death: £2,500 arm or leg: £2,000 blindness in one or both eyes: £2,000

Wow. Is that a typo for death? Not only do they not value human life much at all, losing multiple limbs is more than dying?
Death is cheaper in our legal system than taking care of some one disabled for many years.
China too, that's why you get... those videos.
It costs more than dying.
I mean, I'd probably rather be dead than lose multiple limbs.
As my father quipped to me when I was younger: 'You know the best thing about a three-legged dog? It's not sad about the limb it's missing: it's happy for the three it still has.'
