Glad a hothead like you is on the road so much. His insurance did what they're supposed to do and your insurance did what it's supposed to do.

Sounds like you should have pushed them for some therapy, because you're right that the motorcyclist's completely at fault. But his lawyer's BS really shouldn't be sticking with you like this.

Do you seriously think lawyers don't pull that kind of shit in every possible case? I've got a relative who's a public defender. Compared to some of what he can tell, that's absolute beginner level stuff. Of course they're going to reach for every bit they can, including your logs, fair or unfair. That's their fucking job, and why most people hate lawyers. Prosecution's purpose is to arrange every possible shred of anything they can grasp at that might convince the jury you have even a grain of culpability.
