Just heard a talkback call on 774AM with their legal guy.
A man called in saying that he was on a regular Sat am training ride with about 100 others (Hell ride?) and due to the actions of a driver, 10 of them had a fall. There was a Cop amongst the riders who duly saw to the driver being charged.
The cller asked should the 10 riders be bandeding together to get their case more oomph and streamlined. Answer was yes, as facts pertaining were common.
The legal guy then went on to comment that if (for argument's sake) he was representing the driver he would be pursuing a line as to what degree/% of liability was the driver liable for as the riders could be percieved to be contributing to a portion of the damage/accident bcos they were riding too close together!!!
So will this lead to limitied number bunches?
Wearing ahoolahoop so other riders cant get too close??
