...The owner of the vehicle and her boyfriend were sitting in the second-row seat...

Um, where was the driver? Did he/she flee the scene or something? Killed in the crash?

They had a chauffeur who ended up in the hospital for 40 days.

I meant, where was the driver when it came to helping the couple out of the wrecked vehicle?

I've been in an accident once and immediately after I was in a state of shock, very confused and on auto-mode. Or maybe the driver dies in the accident, so I'm not really sure how this is relevant.

he "was hospitalized for more than 40 days with internal injuries and fractures" so I imagine that he got significantly injured and incapacitated.
