    Personally I wouldn't take it, but I have private medical cover and income cover if I'm not able to work.

    I don't think I could possibly comment on your circumstances as you haven't provided that info.
    What's the risks for you if you are seriously injured?
    Can you take the hit in income if you can't work and the accident was your fault?
    Do you have any income protection? and if not should you get proper income protection rather than just a limited payout for car accidents?
