According to him, Bobbi Kristina was speeding and tailgating a car before she lost control of her vehicle and collided into his Ford Taurus on January 27.

He claims to have suffered multiple spinal, skull and facial fractures and had to undergo extensive surgeries following the accident, according to legal papers obtained by CBS News.
