Success for motorcyclist whose claim was denied by defendant

Mr PR was riding a motorcycle filtering traffic when the Defendant emerged from a side entrance, emerging from a gap in the traffic, turning across the path of the motorcycle causing a collision. The Defendant flatly denied responsibility for the incident alleging the motorcycle was being driven too fast and a collision was unavoidable. The Defendant refused to invest in the claim. Proceedings were issued and subsequently the parties attended a Joint Settlement Meeting where the Defendant left without making an offer in settlement. The case settled prior to a Trial due to be heard in the High Court.
