Article says it's a settlement so I'd guess Veoila knew the amount before settling?

+1 there can be no appeal since both parties agreed the number and the judge then rubberstamped it.

I wasn't too sympathetic to the girl either when I read the headline but she was 13 at the time so I guess that was behind the admission of liability.

What's the point is paying your fare when you see what they do with the money? I always tag on because I pay my way, but **** that. No more. I'm sick of funding these lazy *****

The whole legal system here appears to be a racket with the taxpayer picking up the bill.

Counsel said Rebecca did not want to blame the driver .

Nor herself, obviously.

The driver should take a civil case against her, although I think the maximum payout there can be € 15,000. A mere dent in her balloon payment.

You kidding. Her brain injury didn't stop her ridin. Probably single parent allowance, HAP,child allowance,medical card...the list goes on.:(

Disability allowance?

If idiocy is rewarded then what happens to sensibility?

It looks like it is the rest of us that are the real idiots.

Also, this will possibly lead to copycat cases. Sure what's the risk? Even is you say you were responsible you are almost guaranteed a payout.

The only risk is to your health from undertaking such a venture. Hmm, I wonder if I ...... NO! Snap out of it :mad:
