GEEZ! I wish them a speedy recovery.
Get documentation for everything! The ambulance (whether the used it or not), the police report, eye witness statements, any businesses nearby that may have cameras, hospital bills, food purchased during their hospital stay, vehicle rental receipts, etc. Also make sure you claim lost wages (yours and hers) for missing work. Get a reputable GA traffic injury lawyer with a proven history of large settlements.
The more evidence you give your insurance company, the better. Be sure your wife INSISTS she did nothing wrong and that you REFUSE to pay any deductibles. Tell your insurance to go after the other driver for all compensation. I did the same thing when I was hit while waiting at a light. My insurance went after them for damages and deductible; I didn't pay a dime.
Ask your insurance to total out the vehicle. You'll get a check from the insurance claim, and if you want you can sell the totaled vehicle to a mechanic or scrap yard for extra $$. Then comes the personal lawsuit against the other Driver. With all the right documentation, the other Party will have to settle. Just make sure your lawyer accounts for any future complications due to the crash injuries. MAKE THEM PAY!
