[Asia Economy Reporter Na Ye-eun] A man estimated to be in his 60s arbitrarily twisted the throttle of someone else's motorcycle that was stopped, causing a collision between the motorcycle and a vehicle parked ahead. However, the man's son reportedly demanded a personal injury claim, saying, "My father, who has heart problems, was startled."

According to the YouTube channel 'Han Moon-cheol TV' on the 1st, on the 26th at a road in Suwon-si, Gyeonggi Province, a delivery worker in his early 20s, Mr. A, was moving items in the delivery box on the back of his motorcycle. At that moment, Mr. B, estimated to be in his 60s, suddenly grabbed the handlebars of Mr. A's motorcycle and twisted the throttle. Mr. A was startled and tried to hold the motorcycle again, but it sped forward and hit another vehicle.

Fortunately, the owner of the vehicle involved in the accident, who witnessed the cause, said, "It's an old car, so it's okay, stay strong," and did not request any repairs.

However, Mr. B, who caused the accident, threatened, saying, "How much could this motorcycle be worth?" and his son called Mr. A after the accident, saying, "My father has heart problems and was very shocked. Please file a personal injury claim," showing an arrogant attitude.

Mr. A, who had just purchased the motorcycle when this accident occurred, said, "I cannot estimate the repair cost for the motorcycle," adding, "The entire side needs to be replaced, so it will probably cost about 2 million won." Mr. A, the owner of the motorcycle, is a 21-year-old young head of the household who bought the motorcycle to start delivery work to support his family.

Regarding this, lawyer Han Moon-cheol explained, "If Mr. B's action was a simple mistake, he would not be punished for property damage by negligence. However, if he was someone who could have known that twisting the throttle could cause the motorcycle to move, he could be criminally charged with property damage by implied intent."

He continued, "Why are they asking for personal injury compensation? Mr. B must pay 100% of the damages. It seems he will also have to compensate for the losses during the period Mr. A cannot work due to the motorcycle."
