Deborah Song on soft tissue framing: "The moment you admit to it being a soft tissue is where your case goes to die." Deborah Song on dash cams on Norco's unpaved roads: "In places like Norco, if you frequent those areas often, I highly recommend getting a dash cam because in a situation like that, it's not about lane change. You don't even know where the lane is." Deborah Song on California pure comparative negligence: "If it's a 50/50 situation, he said, she said, the other driver's accepting 50% liability, and case is worth $100, then you are entitled to receive up to $50."
