yes.....and although I know its a high risk hobby I believe this could have been avoided......... oops said too much...... FE...... takes on a new meaning from me..... might blab in new yr........ might not !! lol
This isn't the thread to ask....but sod it..... has anyone ever taken legal action against a track day company ? or maybe believe you cant ??........
In this country you can't sign your legal rights away. However what you will have signed will be used to show that what you are doing is risky and this could affect any payout. IF you can demonstrate that the trackday company have been negligent, or have not acted in an appropriate manner then it would help your case. For example if you and others had complained about the behaviour of someone else on track over multiple sessions, and then that person was involved in an incident then the organisers would need to demonstrate that they had taken suitable action, i.e. a written record from an instructor who said they had followed the rider and that they were satisfied with their riding. It's like those signs in carparks where you are charged for parking but the company says they accept no responsibility for damage etc. At the end of the day they still have a duty of care and should act accordingly. Take all the above with a pinch of salt though as I am not a lawyer.
