lol! Proof you can sue ANYONE in this country. Of coursde it's a valid legal trick -- sue everyone and hopefully they'll settle to avoid headache and legal fees. He'll probably get money from victim's insurance company.

This is a new legal trick. So if u get hit -- the other person could sue you!

SALEM — The driver of a minivan who was seriously injured when she was struck head-on by a drag-racing teenager doing 81 mph is now being sued by the teenager's passenger, who was also injured.

A lawsuit filed yesterday in Salem Superior Court suggests that Christine Speliotis "carelessly and negligent (sic) failed to avoid the collision with the other vehicle head on."

The lawsuit was filed by the father of Brandon Pereira, 17, of Peabody, the cousin of Timothy Pereira, the driver of the speeding Ford Mustang.

Timothy Pereira, 19, of Salem is out on bail awaiting trial on charges that include racing, speeding, driving to endanger and failing to stay within marked lanes.

Investigators from the Salem and state police concluded that Timothy Pereira was going 81 mph on Fort Avenue, a road with a 30 mph speed limit, when he lost control, veering across the center lines and into the path of a Honda Odyssey minivan.

i would think this would be thrown out rather quickly. they might be trying to sue but no court would hear this. the real victim could easily counter sue and win.

I hope that the passenger is beaten to a pulp by a bunch of ravenous hamsters who do justice. It's like the TMNT, but with hamsters instead.

This is a new untested area, and if not thrown out - I can see many lawyers using this tactic to force victims to settle/drop lawsuits instead of paying lawyers to defend themselves, go to court, deal with the headache. Lawyers are disgusting and will always seek out any avenue to get funds, even if it means goign after victims. If judges don't throw cases like tihs out, blame the judges.
