Yesterday one of the girls in the office had a fright.
She pulled into a garage to fill up. her two kids in the back of the car. A truck pulls in but whacks the canopy over the pumps sending a metal pole falling from the roof onto her head. Claret everywhere and she was knocked over but didn't lose consciousness. Staff call an ambulance and off she is carted whilst her family arrived to take care of her kids.
Conversations in the office turned to whom she could claim compensation from. The lorry driver and/or his employer or the garage owner or maybe even both.
Assuming there were height restriction signs in place I'm guessing both she and the garage will claim against the trucker.
