Was just going to say... what would most people do if they were faced with NathanE's situation?
Continue straight on and hit the ambulance head on, or knowing that there was no way the ambulance could stop in time, brake hard and try and get out of its way?
Yeah sure, it was NathanE's fault that he fit the curb, but he didn't cause the accident. The dangerous overtaking by the ambulance driver caused the accident.
I agree to totally, if I was in that situation I would obviously try to get out of the way, as I am sure that most people would.
I also agree that the ambulance does appear to causing the problem by driving dangerously, however the system is such that should this be taken further, NathanE would be found as the guilty party in any claim for damages against his vehicle.
Yes, the sytem in these kind of cases suck, see the other thread
here , the system sucks there to.
