‘Sorry you rode into me’: Driver issues ‘non-apology apology’ to boy he hit in car-bike accident


NEW YORK (Philippine Daily Inquirer/Asia News Network): A driver from New York, United States has drawn flak after an apology letter he wrote to a 10-year-old boy involved in a car-bike accident saw him seemingly put blame on the child for riding into the side of his car.

Doug Lamb, 66 years old, was driving a white Range Rover along Kilburn Road after a round of afternoon golf when he and 10-year-old Julian Moore, on his bicycle, collided. The impact brought Moore down to the ground. The child sustained minor scrapes, bruises and a mild concussion, as per The Democrat & Chronicle on Jan. 16.
