its a sad thing to know some of the serious things people make fun of untill it hits home i wish they should have to go to adult surgical ward and see some of the people there who loose a limb or in traction (like I was) then they wouldnt make fun cause to loose a limb is so easy. Before you type if you think of his future seeing that he is only 18 years old or put oneself in his shoes or position you would dure have a different out look unless you from hell and if so well well well......

this happened outside the show on the road i heard. When i remember correctly, i did see a bike burning out on the road outside the gates.

Regardless if it happened on the road, it could have been avoided.Lots of people do things with no due care and attention.

^^^stupidity should be first...I'm really sorry for that feller...not meaning to imply cause i wasn't there...however even if promoters didn't follow safety standards....a lil common sense could help yuh to enjoy yuhself and still keep d a low risk of potential damage to yourself in d event ah man "loss it" ....I guess for a bike man to "slam" into spectators..they must have been in the "right place" for this to happen....i'm wondering if this burnout was one of the Trini usual...with a million ppl dangerously close to a vehicle...hope it wasn't so...however if it was..legal action could be taken against promoters if proper safety procedures was not in place...I wish that lad peace of mind in his acceptance of his new way of physical life...

A friend of mine said his leg bone was popping out his flesh :shock:

She also said that he was asking her for her number while he laying on the ground, but she probably forking lieing :roll:

Sad case though... But this will teach them fellas who like to stand next to cars when they street racing etc a lesson. Not saying that this guy look for he sheit, but I've seen many cases of young people standing around those cars on the streets. Is better yuh stand behind a park car or away from the action because yuh never know what could happen.

if this happened on the street outside of the venue/show

then it is subject to traffic laws and the promoter is not responsable

that's a strong statement that as implications for the biker, promoter, venue owner and victim............do you have any proper details?
Otherwise, you are creating foundation for wild speculation and accusations.....please be more specific

You're missing the point!

This is quite true, unless the promoter requested use of that part of the roadway, which I don't think would pertain in this instance.

One would think that these "disclaimers" wouold have some weight, however I discovered recently while observing an injury case in the local high court that a contract cannot indemnify you from the law. The law stands no matter what you think you signed on paper. And the law states that if you have occupied a venue for the purpose of inviting the PUBLIC to a function then both you and the landlord can be held fully liable for incidence arising from negligence or lack of due care.

evo-STI-k · Postby **evo-STI-k** » July 8th, 2009, 9:31 am

so everytime you go to solodex, if a competitor skids off and bounces you(provided you are behind safety barriers) , you can have a very legitimate case against the driver and the promoter????

Postby **Notorious Scullman** » July 8th, 2009, 10:13 am

Against the driver, the promoter, and the property owner.

Everyone has a duty of care

Postby SR » July 8th, 2009, 10:16 am

at dex you sign a waiver for this when entering the compound

i wonder how many people actually read the waiver

Very true.

OSHA laws are very clear on this. "the employer (in this case, the promoter) is responsible for all employees, visitors and 3rd parties on the premise at any time."
Alot of places have disclaimers, but it cannot be legally enforced upon the public.

true

if it happened outside the carshow, then the title of this thread is misleading and should be changed.
