Question 6289
The costs of traffic accidents fall...
- only on the victims of those accidents.
- on all citizens, directly or indirectly.
- only on insurance companies.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: on all citizens, directly or indirectly.
The costs fall on all citizens. Victims and their families bear them directly, and everyone else pays indirectly: hospitals, police, and road repairs are funded by taxes, while insurance payouts are funded by the premiums we all pay.
