Oil trail from cracked pan caused an accident..

Yeah, completely understand. It was a good thing you stopped and checked if she was alright. But there is no way you are at fault for her negligence. If anything, they should thank you for having the decency to stop and check.

That's pretty much what my insurance agent said and kinda implied i shouldn't have bothered really.

I spun in the oil from my own transmission once...

...I tried to sue myself, but failed.

And my RACE car isn't that low...

t

Lol no settlement? E30 race car?

Wait... So the woman didn't see the probably GIANT FUCKING DARK OIL PATCH and slow down? Negligence there, I would've said sorry, hope your ok, now bye I have a life to go on with without paying you for your ignorance...

I'm guessing no because the grade from over and away from the railroad is kinda steep I guess. I left a trail and not a puddle and just her luck she probably road on the trail like a bar of soap..

As many others have said .good on you for go checking on her, and I would still feel guilty of causing the accident a tiny bit .if your oil wasn't there she probably wouldn't have derped.

But legally your not responsible. If you ride a motorcycle/scooter/death machine your gonna have to be extra carefull . That's like me hitting a rock in the road and blowing out my pan. I'd like to blame it on the rocks Previous owner , but in reality it's my fault for not avoiding it. Shit happens.

It's the drivers responsibility to pay attention to road conditions. Simple as that.
