Not exactly the same thing, but is a good example of complex liability case.

That blows that the shop was held accountable for a rider that clearly didn't know how to ride the bike he bought... Just saying... I would bet he knew dayam well the bike had been lowered and if he hadn't been "pushing" the bike to its limits then it would not have happened...

People and there ridiculous entitlement lawsuits out for a dollar... This country has gone crazy on lawsuits and not accepting responsibility for their own responsibilities...
