The important question is; is the bike ok?

We'll have to hear his side of the story.
Was the Brown Squirrel glorious?

Knowing that he was a flat lander with unknown (to me) bike handling skills, I was unsure about taking him up on a proper ridge. But I decided YOLO, let's give him a real East TN cycling experience. So, he flew down windy descent, no problem. Then, standing in traffic at the light, he fell down. SMH.

Yes. I haven't tried 38's, but I wouldn't be averse to them.

Don’t plan on riding Sunday, @datlas.

I always used 42s. Then the R3 came with 38s because it was intended for a woman. I never noticed and now I love them, especially in the drops. I wish I had had them for crowded turns when I was racing. The breathing issue is nonsense.

Often the "resolution" is to simply take the driver's insurance proceeds and call it a day since the driver likely doesn't have the resources to pay a judgment or larger settlement.

As for criminal liability, the prosecutor would have to show intent or some grossly negligent (drunk, for example) conduct in order to have a case. That can be hard to achieve.
