should be sure will be doubtful. My brother had is 72 checy nova totaled by a just under legaly drunk woman with 3 duis (over the years) who had lic and insurance driving for airborn express. She was clearly at fault her insurance fought it tooth and nail all the way in the end my brother got nothing.
If a insurance company can weesel out on that they can easly do so with a bike. They will argue it to the point where his time simply is worth more than the setlement.
Remember were talking a walmart schwinn varcity a 200 dolor bike and probably 2 grand of med bills incoming soon enough.So 2200 bucks. Insurance will ither setle right off or fight till he gives up on it (or his parents dont know how old the op is)
