Not one of us could forget that day. The guys were all tripped out to try the motorcycle and do some dirt bike stunts. And if there was one guy in the gang who’d beat us in this, it was Bill. He asked for the planks to be re-arranged to face the highway while he was revving the bike. But then, he decided to make things wicked; he wanted to start from the highway to gather more speed. So, he zoomed his way into the highway and bam!  Motorbike and bill screeched eerily on the road. Blood and gasoline colored the street. Bill was rushed to the hospital for treatment and the driver was questioned by the highway patrol who responded. We found out later that the driver was charged with DUI. Bill’s dad immediately called their family’s attorney.  Good thing, his lawyer was a motorcycle accident attorney Tampa specialist.

When we visited Bill at the hospital, the lawyer was there. That was how I found out directly from the personal injury attorney Tampa firm that there were various claims possible. The truck driver was charged and Bill never rode another bike-ever.
