Here's how I could see this playing out:
*The driver & passenger will sue Hart.
*Hart will turn around & sue Speedkore.
*Speedkore could have a leg to stand on by saying Hart didn't request us to install safety constraints,as well as the State doesn't mandate us to put restraints in.
*Hart will then turnaround and sue the driver for negligence,but I could see the courts saying,"if you saw the driver as being competent enough to drive your car,why shouldn't we?"...As well as Hart might have given consent to the driver to "Floor it" or egging him on in someway while sitting next to him.Only those 3 in the car know what truly happened.
*I also don't think Hart being taken away @ the scene by his bodyguard will bode well for him & he might be left holding the bag for all parties involved in the end.As well as being a celebrity,meaning this will always come up in a conversation somewhere,like other actions from his past already have.
*The courts could also tell the driver & passenger,"you knew what you were getting into,be grateful you're alive & walking away",and drop their lawsuits.
*The state might want to revise their laws to mandate special cars built like this in the future to have better safety restraints too.
