If the reports are accurate, that this was a single vehicle collision, the occupants of the vehicle would still be able to bring a potential claim for negligent vehicle operation against the driver of the car. Generally speaking, if the vehicle was insured, there would be coverage per person and per incident. So, for example, if the insurance policy was $1,000,000 / $3,000,000, no single occupant would be entitled to more than $1,000,000 and the collective occupants would not be entitled to more than $3,000,000 in aggregate.
