'getting t-boned' by pulling out of a junction without looking properly when aged 97

(, Fri 18 Jan 2019, 11:57, Reply)
That's entirely conjecture.
But what is clear, is that to tip a Range Rover onto it's side requires a considerable amount of force, especially if it's an armoured one. The Kia would have had to have been travelling pretty fast to do that.
None of the details that would be required to establish fault have been made public as far as I am aware. If you're already attributing that fault to a specific party, either you're so much cleverer or more informed than the journalists on the scene, or you're simply demonstrating yet again just how biased and quick to judge you are.

The conjecture is that it is his fault.
The conjecture is that he wasn't looking properly. You have no evidence for that. Maybe it is, and maybe it isn't, but you cannot say with any authority. You haven't spoken to either of the drivers. You haven't received eye witness statements. You haven't examined the damage to the vehicles, or any markings that might have been left on the road.
What you HAVE done, however, is assume that someone you hate bitterly did a bad thing... now we are all aware of just how much importance you place on your feelings when you're attempting objective judgements, but no-one else has quite the same confidence in them.

Most people give up driving in their 70s or 80s simply because they dont trust themselves not to make errors like this anymore.
Even if she was doing 120mph on the wrong side of the road (unlikely given a) the car she was driving and b) she had her kid in the car), all 97 year old drivers are significantly impaired and therefore reckless and irresponsible.

Here's the thing.
"all 97 year old drivers are significantly impaired and therefore reckless and irresponsible."
That's simply not true, but again it's another example of your black and white thinking. You also appear to literally be stating that "even if it was totally her fault, it was his fault", which completely undermines any argument from you.
(, Fri 18 Jan 2019, 14:26, Reply)
of course it is true
97 year olds cant see as well, they cant hear as well, their reactions are slower, their motor skills are reduced. It is just what happens when you get to 97 - you fade, then you die.

You're talking about statistics,

You are interpreting my refusal to agree with your kneejerk reaction as though I hold the opposite opinion to you which I do not. Another of your classic straw men. Like I said... everything is always black and white with you.
As it happens I think that it is likely that he was at fault, but I do not know the facts so I cannot say. However, as soon as I saw the article I thought to myself "I bet if I go on b3ta links someone will have posted this, and benny will have wasted no time before being gleefully dickish about it." And here we are.
(, Fri 18 Jan 2019, 16:31, Reply)
The facts are not going to be known
The focus will shift to his recovery, if there's any more mention of the Kia driver it will be something along the lines of 'isnt she lucky to have been injured by royalty', then he'll die. As 97 year olds tend to. The investigation will be forgotten and quietly shelved. Then I'm a celebrity will start again
(, Fri 18 Jan 2019, 17:26, Reply)
Absolutely.
They're 'proper' off-road vehicles and have a very low centre of gravity as a result. You wouldn't roll one by driving into it with a Kia, not without killing all the people in the Kia.
He clearly tried to make some kind of evasive manoeuvre before the accident, and he was carrying enough momentum/inertia to help tip the Range Rover once the collision occurred.
Of course, it won't be Phil's fault. It'll likely be written off as an unavoidable set of circumstances brought about by adverse weather conditions and poor road planning. I guarantee if there had been a fatality, the blame would be shifted onto the Kia drivers.

well, I pulled out in front of someone
from a normal give way junction (which it looks like here) and my insurance told me they wouldn't challenge the claim if the person who hit me made one because they have right of way. The only exception to this is if the person doing the hitting broke any laws immediately before or during the accident - like speeding. But without equipment, or the evidence of numerous witnesses speeding is a difficult one to prove.
