Explanation:

• Option a: After a serious crash injury, rehabilitation costs are often covered by public assistance (like government programs) or result in higher insurance costs (as insurers may raise premiums to cover claims), which is realistic.
• Option b: "Always" is incorrect, as many victims can't afford medical bills on their own.
• Option c: Insurance companies are affected by crash - related injuries as they have to pay out claims, so this is wrong.
• Option d: The financial burden isn't only on families; it can involve insurers, public funds, etc., so this is incorrect.

Answer:

a) Public assistance or higher insurance costs often cover rehabilitation expenses
