Looks like he got lucky. Mild break of the collar bone, no serious head injury. His bike is now banana shaped, though.

Holy shit, glad he's okay. <3

 

[Jehannum]

This guy's a thinker!

I mean, we've already got college covered, so...

 

[Jehannum]

I wish my kid was as smart as Jean Ralphio, but he got hit by a Kia, not a Lexus.

Tell him to pick a much fancier car to run in front of next time.

 

[Jehannum]

The more I look at it, the worse it gets.

wut

 

[NukesII]

Or buy 5-6 non functioning German automobiles

Spot on. I never considered it before, but Jehannum is the only redneck scientist I've ever heard of.
Except he actually gets the cars to run...

 

[Jehannum]

NICE, the kid that hit my kid's insurance policy is still valid.

Started the claim today. Gonna let them and the hospital work that shit out. Maybe there'll be enough left to get the boy a new bike.

 

[Jehannum]

Well that's fun. The kid was delivering for grubhub when he ran my son over. Now Progressive says they don't cover that activity.

I wonder if Grubhub covers their drivers, or if I magically get to pay for all of his treatment now on my own.

If in doubt, shame both companies on social media.

GrubHub says they rely on their independent contractors to carry adequate insurance.

It sounds negligent of them to not ensure their I dependant contractors are adequately insured

Yeah.

His helmet is the MVP today. It's in pretty grim condition.

They're X-raying his right collar bone and left leg now, and the plan is to observe him for a while for the head injury. They don't want to CT a 16y/o, I guess.

omg !!!!!!!
i hope he’s ok! i haven’t been here in a little while just catching up

Agreed. There's a real class action suit brewing if neither the insurer of the vehicle nor the "technology company" will cover the liability. I'm thinking (based on the history of Uber-like companies) that if the driver was both on app AND delivering for GrubHub, then GrubHub is on the hook for the liability of one of their contractors hitting Jehannun Jr during the course of his on app task.
Couldn't hurt to sue both companies.
There's nothing litigious about demanding that someone take accountability for the actions of their insured or their contractor.

Kid #3 hit 16.

I just need to schedule driving tests and then both boys are ready to go get their licenses and I might start to have a little free time again.

Any updates on this? I'm interested in how it turns out.

On the advice of my attorney, I went ahead and filed against my own uninsured motorist coverage.

They're taking care of it. I submitted my kid's first medical bill on Tuesday, and they're now waiting on me to submit my ACH info.

Will they go after him?
