    Quote from the driver:
    "It's the only way I have to claim my money back," Delgado was quoted as saying by the newspaper El Pais, which first reported the story on Friday.

    Sorry, this is the guy being an asshole.

    And did these idiots really think the kid not wearing reflective materials was a factor? The car was going 100 fucking miles per hour!

    Of course it mattered. The biker might have flown just 60 feet in the air if he was doing the speed limit.

    Those Audis are made out of aluminum, and repairing them is more complicated and much more expensive than a steel body.

    So he was forced against his will to drive 100 mph in a 55 zone? :mad:

    At least he showed that one brain cell is still firing by dropping the suit.

    i think the family of the dead kid should now sue the driver for bringing the suit -- he dropped -- in the first place. mental anguish.

    Much more reasonable than what I'd want to do to that jackass if it was my kid.
