It does go to show how (some) rich people think they are above the law.

Coiled around her hoard of Nazi gold in Switzerland, with the rest of the lizard-people.

Good to see that's the first site you (I, at least) get when you Google her name.

Bear in mind we're only getting one side of the story here. I'd like to see an independent source to cite before I grab my pitchfork.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

Good luck, their lawyers got all the articles taken down Razz

Edit: these not good enough?

feckin hell that's awful...

wonder why she hasn't been extradited?

It says she was underage but I thought you could drive at 16 in most states Confused

Given that she's now a fugitive with little chance of becoming a pro golfer surely her parents expensive lawyers would have been better advising her to stay and face up to the charges.
Everybody knows that you only get a driving ban and fine for killing a biker so injuring one would be no worse the a speeding fine.

I don't know the whole story, but it sounds like a lot of his injuries could have been avoided if he was wearing a... helmet perhaps..

Tough break to him, and I hope I'm never in a similar situation (un-likely though!) but at time's like this, you've got to question the need vs want to wear a helmet...

The site does link to a couple of news sites as well as the police report.

What bike did he have that $30k of damage was done to it Confused

Yea, but that'd be about $500 worth of damage; surely they can't be worth more than that when they've left the show room? Wink

I was going to suggest such, but used the F-word quite a bit recently, so thought I'd restrain myself!

Title should be "flees US", rather than implying its over here, where people are less crazy.

What I dont understand is why this rich family didnt just pay out for the mistake, being rich and all that. Ill be honest, if that exact thing happened to anyone in my family, I would fly over and find them***. I hope she is very scared, and I hope somone is looking for her over there.

*** to make their lives hell. Perhaps riding past her house at 5am every morning on a 50cc moped with no exhaust. That would do it. Every morning.
