Hi Karen,

I really hate to say this the new person. But, it sounded like she ran into him from the rear. If that is the case, then she has no one to be upset with except herself. R's "disability" had nothing to do with the accident. And I would still call it an accident no more. It's not R's fault. The new girl should have left more of a safety zone. She isn't used to your groups riding dynamics.

Don't use R's disability as an excuse for the accident.
