Dad's TUI Holiday Quad Bike Horror Crash Left Him 'a Different Person' - Liverpool Echo
CAPE VERDE, JUL 12 – Tony Holliday seeks over £500,000 in damages alleging inadequate safety briefings, a defective quad bike, and misleading claims about the excursion's suitability for beginners.
- Tony Holliday, a 57-year-old father from Cumbria, suffered severe injuries in a quad bike crash during a March 2023 holiday in Sal, Cape Verde.
- The accident occurred on a two-hour quad biking trip arranged as compensation after the family’s luggage was lost and original rooms smelled of sewage.
- Mr. Holliday swerved to avoid his daughter's bike, hit rocks, was thrown off, and sustained a fractured right leg plus head, shoulder, and hand injuries requiring two surgeries.
- He stated, "I'm not the same person I was" and suffers "unbearable" pain with anxiety and sleeping struggles, while his surgeon predicted he would never run or walk without a limp.
- Mr. Holliday is suing TUI UK for over £500,000 claiming inadequate safety instructions and misrepresentation of the trip as beginner-friendly; TUI regrets the injuries and will file its defense later this year.
