Wow. He's suing her school because, and do correct me if I'm wrong, someone crashed into him in an "unfortunate accident" and it's the schools fault they didn't kick him out of the ride first? Ummm...ok.
Makes me wonder though, should all group rides do a 'separate the roadies from the triathletes' so the roadies don't get hurt? ;)
Personally, I think people use the word "accident" too liberally. The guy was either and idiot or not paying attention. He simply didn't stop and ran right into them.
Having suffered a broken femur that required surgery myself, I can tell you it's life altering and 750K is not a lot of money to receive in compensation. I'd gladly forgo receiving even 2M to not have to deal with a metal plate and screws in my leg.
