Hong Kong clerk seeks $1.07M damages after 2019 protest taxi incident

A Hong Kong clerk is seeking HK$8.4 million (US$1.07 million) in damages after being struck by a taxi during a 2019 protest. Her lawyers argue the taxi driver, Henry Cheng, was negligent by failing to brake or sound his horn before mounting a pavement and hitting her and another woman. The defense contends that the subsequent assault on the driver by protesters is irrelevant to the cause of the accident. AI
