The driver hit someone and he should have stayed but the fact that he didn't did not in any way worsen 128s condition since there were thankfully other people there to get help for him.
Your right, but losing control of the bike wasn't intentional, so it isn't like he decided to bomb some intersection and large hill on purpose. If a man is walking down the street, trips into an intersection and gets hit, is he at fault. The way I am taking this accident is that Adam was riding his bike, something went wrong, he lost control,tried to fix it by going into the flow of traffic and away from the intersection, and some driver came up and hit him in the inside lane. Yes, Adam got in trouble because of losing control and the accident was most likely not intentional, but the fact that it happend and the driver was too ****ing stupid to stay and help out, makes it the drivers fault completely.
