Anyone else she might injure would be covered under the bodily injury liability, right? And the underinsured motorist covers her if someone without insurance hurts her. If she hurts herself, my regular healthcare ought to cover it, so I just don't understand the value of the personal injury protection. Right now she's got (w/ prices per 6 months): BODILY INJURY LIABILITY $50,000/$100,000 - $347.80 PROPERTY DAMAGE LIABILITY $50,000 - $264.00 BASIC PERSONAL INJURY PROTECTION $35,000 - $173.70 UNDERINSURED MOTORIST BODILY INJURY $50,000/$100,000 - $41.10 UNDERINSURED MOTORIST PROPERTY DAMAGE $20,000 - $19.60 Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

So I'm looking to buy my daughter a decent car for her high school graduation next month. Not something brand new, but late model, low mileage, dependable, and at least a bit "cool", so I'll in all likelihood be financing it. I'm already helping her with insurance, but it's not the full coverage that will be required on a financed vehicle, just liability, underinsured motorist, and medical. I was kinda amazed at the cost of adding her to my policy, as she has a clean (albeit only a little over a year long) driving record. I'm looking at the policy and wondering where I can cut costs, and the medical jumps out at me. For me, that coverage is kind of a nevermind...like $70/year, but for her it's nearly $350. What I'm wondering about is the usefullness of it. I've already got her on my regular healthcare insurance, so do we actually need medical coverage on our auto insurance? Do normal healthcare policies exclude payment for injuries sustained in an at-fault accident? Or is the primary benefit of automobile medical coverage for those who don't have regular health insurance? Anyone know enough about insurance to tell me whether I'm just paying for overlapping coverage? Blues, Dave "I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!" (drink Mountain Dew)

No, you don't yet "get it." Perhaps it'll be easier to imagine in reverse. Let's say an airplane is on final approach to land on such a conveyor belt. The belt has a radar system attached to it so that it "knows" the exact groundspeed of the approaching aircraft. When the plane touches down, do you think it will come to a catastrophic stop? Or will the wheels simply spin faster than they do when touching down on a runway? It would take a wind-generator tuned to the airspeed being generated by the props to cause the type of launch you're talking about. The only way a conveyor belt could affect the launch is by going the same direction as the airplane is pointed...e.g. set the brakes on the wheels, and let the belt convey the aircraft across the ground (more accurately, through the airmass) at whatever its minimum take-off speed is.
