The Claimant (C) was an 11-year-old schoolboy at date of accident and 22 years old at trial, who sustained significant injuries. He alighted from a bus outside school and, being slightly late and in a rush, attempted to cross the road whereupon he was struck by D’s car. D was familiar with the road, the presence of two schools and bus stops were numerous children alighted. D had seen C but had not been able to stop in time.
Peter Freeman successfully represented D. The Judge, Mr Rec. Kohli, found that there was no evidence that D had been negligent in relation to his speed, his observations, his reaction or his braking. Claim dismissed.
