“”A Monterey County man will be getting millions of dollars from the state for the injuries he received when he crashed his motorcycle after hitting a wild pig.”
And CA wonders why it can’t pay its bills.
This guy was drunk, riding his motorcycle and hit one of the wild pigs and is now wheel-chair bound.
The jury awarded him millions since the state did not provide a way for the pigs to safely get across the street and, they did not put up any signed that pigs might be crossing. The state now, has erected a sign warning that pigs might be crossing. I'd say put a tunnel under the road.
So that would be $258,000,000,000,000 ($258 Trillion) at $8.6 Million per person, assuming 300 Million inhabitants, from Obama, his Rat cohorts, and assorted RINOs for the January crash with Porkulus Maximus?
Proper answer: “Well, we didn’t know they were going to be crossing *then* ...”
BOGUS.
what is wrong with California and American in general.
As a guy who lives in an area that are heavily populated with deer, I gotta roll my eyes at this one.
I mean, this is why I sold my motorcycle (that, and I needed the money) — I could see myself hitting a deer on a motorcycle, and it would’ve made for a very bad day.
I’ll have to remember this in case a bug ever hits me in the eye and I wreck my bike and end up crippled as a result: No bug crossings. The state knew and didn’t warn me. Millions will be mine.
Why is there even a “sanctuary” for wild pigs? It’s not like they’re an endangered species.
Any lawyers out there that can tell us what the chance of him actually collecting this amount.
Was the pig wild?
Well, it wasn't best pleased.
It seems the state has also, by it’s policies, encouraged the expansion of the Mountain Lion population. Next time there’s an attack, I would think that this is grounds for a major lawsuit.
I couldn’t determine if he was riding a Hog . . .
