Yeah, good but Who pays for the broken ankle and thumb, any loss of income, mobility, mental anguish etc as a result of those things and the $10,000 bike "crushed beneath the car"? Can the cyclists involved also raise assault or other criminal charges against the driver? -- www.ozcableguy.com www.oztechnologies.com |

But right now, I'm still in shock from having my car totalled last Sunday, and I'm afraid my legal options are probably similar if not identical. Regards, Ray |

However what sorta money is available will depend. The personal injuries will come out of the car's compulsory 3rd party insurance. The property damage will come out of any other insurance on the car for the price of an application to the insurance company. If there is none then it is civil suit time, and if the drongo has no easily attachable money then it might be 5 bucks a week till the end of time.... Zebee |

There might also be something available under 'victims of crime' payments, if he is convicted? |
