Think I've related this before but I've got a customer that knoked one off the road some years back with the blade on the dozer he was hauling. Seems he crested a hill and was headed down the other side when he encountered a biker who refused to move over when he tooted the air horn. He couldn't stop fast enough given the weight he was hauling, and as he got into the other lane to pass a car came around the curve at the bottom of the hill so he had to move back over quicker than planned. When he looked in the mirror after getting back into his lane he saw the guy tumbling down the side of the road. Fast forward and the guys lawyer tried pulling all kinds of crap out of his a$$ to get my customer charged for something. In the end for anything to stick they had to prove that the bike was a "motor vehicle", something they couldn't do. If they had been able to prove that the bike was a "motor vehicle" then they still couldn't find my customer at fault because the bike would then have had to have had a SMV, the proper lights and emergency signals, mirrors, and anything else any inspectible vehicle would have had to have had...not to mention then it would have had to have been inspected to be on the road legally. Needess to say when my customers lawyer got through with the biker's lawyer the whole thing got dropped really fast.
