Motorcycle accident Advice?? |
my bf was driving to his dads on his HD VROD, and a man ran out into US 41, in Naples FL, bf swerved but the man went the same way, bf flipped over his bike and was injured very badly scraped up alot of skin missing, he was wearing a helmet, the old man that walked across had a bad leg injury! they both were sent to hospital. The police gave the old man a jay walkign citation and bf is still in recovering this happened yesterday he is at home but badly hurt and iwll miss alot of work. we are seeing an attorney tomorrow morning i took lots of pics, of his wounds,....this is insane the old man almost killed my bf. it's a christmas miracle nothing worse happened....both survived! does anyone have any experiance with this type of settlement, by will miss work, his bike is wrecked and only has liability insurance,we are both 21, this financial mess is already bad enoough we can't afford the deductable, this bike was his only transport...help?? Usually to receive a settlement in any injury case you have to suffer a permanent injury ex] permanent disfigurement or permanent pain. Call a lawyer to verify. P.S. count your blessings, me and my business partner/best friend were snowmobiling in norther Michigan when he was hit by a plow truck. He died right there in front of me leaving behind a wife and kids, No settlement only tragedy. I'd look into motorcycle specific attorneys it differs from country to country. try searching on the web some motorcycle websites instead, it can be really helpful. ride safe first, enjoyment later. You do realize that no matter what, your BF would be in the wrong, even if the old man was jaywalking right? Pedestrians always have the right of way, even if they are jaywalking. Talk to a lawyer, as this is going to be a very tough fight on your bf's part. ITs going to be a factor weighed on how much fault it was on your BF's part and the old man's part (like 60% your BF and 40% the old man) or 50/50 and you may never get medical bills recovered. |
