We would too, except these ladies wanted to see Dr. Phil.
Five women are suing the “doctor” after they were involved in a crash while en route to his show almost 2 years ago.
What took them so long?
Back in December 2007, the Dr. Phil show chartered a bus for members of a Ventura County mothers group to come to a taping of the show. Unfortunately, while en route to the doc’s studio the bus crashed.
Oops.
In the lawsuit filed with L.A. County Superior Court, the women claim that the bus’ brakes “failed and lost power, making the bus unable to stop”, causing it to collide with “another vehicle, two concrete curbs, an iron fence and two trees”.
Ouch!
From the crash, 17 were injured but only 5 are suing for negligently hiring a bad bus. In addition to suing the show’s production company Peteski Productions, they’re also going after the bus company, Bus America, and the bus driver.
Why not sue the other car involved for being on the road, while you’re at it?
The ladies are suing for unspecified damages.
With all the employees he’s canned, we’re sure there’s some money lying around to take care of this little problem!
