Joanne Flickinger pressed charges on $450 Million rich Schwarzenegger after the latter collided with the bicyclist with his SUV this February while driving on a busy West L.A. Street. The lawsuit has been obtained by TMZ, which reports that Flickinger wants to sue Arnie for his driving skills.
The lawsuit claims Arnie was driving the car “with excessive speed and failed to keep a proper lookout.” Flickinger also notes that she suffered severe injuries due to the clash.
