The claimant had been severely injured whilst driving a go-kart at a track operated by the defendant. She had been wearing a scarf which became entangled with the moving parts causing very substantial injuries. She said that the cart did not comply with the 1992 Regulations, but the judge had found such Karts to be excluded.
