Arnold Schwarzenegger, the renowned actor and former governor, is now facing legal trouble as he is being sued by the bicyclist he accidentally collided with in a traffic accident. The plaintiff, Joanne Flickinger, has accused Schwarzenegger of negligence and recklessness in her lawsuit.
Key Takeaway
Arnold Schwarzenegger is being sued by a bicyclist who claims he was driving with excessive speed and failed to keep a proper lookout, resulting in a collision and severe injuries. Schwarzenegger has not responded to the allegations as of yet.
The Allegations
In the recently filed lawsuit, Flickinger claims that Schwarzenegger was driving with excessive speed and failed to keep a proper lookout, leading to the accident. She argues that the collision caused her severe injuries and is holding Schwarzenegger responsible for the damages.
The incident occurred back in February on a busy street in West L.A. According to reports, Arnold’s SUV collided with Flickinger’s bike, resulting in her being transported to the hospital. At the time, law enforcement sources suggested that Flickinger made a left turn in front of Schwarzenegger before he had a chance to hit his brakes, and he was not driving at a high speed.
The Lawsuit
However, Flickinger’s perspective on the incident differs greatly. She believes Schwarzenegger’s driving was careless and that he should be held accountable for her injuries. The lawsuit aims to seek compensation for the harm suffered by Flickinger during the accident.
As of now, there has been no response from Arnold Schwarzenegger or his representatives regarding the lawsuit. It remains to be seen how this legal battle will unfold and what the outcome will be.
