This whole ordeal sucks very bad and I hope Charlie makes a full and speedy recovery.
The guy in car is a jackass no doubt but he is not liable for the accident.It is just that a accident in the desert and neither party will win in court.
Several years ago a guy was racing up the old side of comp and a Jeep was coming down the center like an a$$.The guy on the quad hit the Jeep and lost his leg.My father and I were first on the scene and they landed flight for life at the base of comp.
I never heard anything about this till about a couple of years ago it ended up on peoples court.
The judge threw them both out because it was in the desert,dusty at night and the judge ruled that even thought the Jeep came down in the center the guy on the quad was still just as responisble because it was dusty and he couldnt see racing into the unknown.
NEITHER PARTY WILL WIN IT SUCKS BUT WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH THIS BECAUSE ITS WHAT WE LIKE TO DO!!!!!
ITS A MAJOR RISK!!!!!
