So in this hypothetical scenario, instead of laying the bike down or just full-on bailing as soon as there was a catastrophic failure, he continues to proceed down the town’s streets, waiting for… what, exactly? The side of a building, people crossing the street, a group of absorbant children playing…?
Like yeah it’s technically a possibility, but if anything that makes the guy look even dumber. Then we get into things like ‘poor maintenance’ and root causes for the failure…
From a legal standpoint, I would definitely not try that angle. Even if everything was fine until the few seconds before that intersection, care and maintenance is going to be scrutinized so hard.
It’s okay, there’s nothing to protect in his head anyway
Couldve had a break failure or something ya know
