Werner wins on appeal

"The high court said that nothing the Werner driver, Shiraz Ali, did or didn’t do contributed to the pickup truck hitting ice, losing control, veering into the median and entering oncoming traffic on an interstate highway."

Glad this absurd verdict was overturned.

The $100 million award was absurd.

The reasoning for blaming Werner was absurd.

That it took over a decade to resolve this matter was absurd.

Justice has finally prevailed.

 

the lawyer for the pick up truck driver's family, must have sold the family a bunch of hopes and dreams, that the trucker maybe was in some sort of violation of his hours of service, or speeding, to have caused the Werner driver of "being there, when he should not have been there"......

i gotta say, as much as i really do not have respect for many mega trucking companies, this is good that Werner won.

 

It's the right decision, I guess they just wanted to see Werner cry some crocodile tears. I wonder how much they paid the legal team, lawyers are always happy @ $,1000 an hour

 

Hope Werner goes after the plaintiffs for every penny they have for such a blatantly frivolous lawsuit.

 

And I hope the driver does, too. There's no telling how much he had to spend in lawyer's fees, lost income, etc.

 

Loss of income,undue economic hardship,slander/libel!

Glad to see that the Texas Supreme Court saw thru all the BS this case curtailed!
