    Wait, the pickup crossed the median and ran in to the truck?
    This is why our country is broken

    But the company contends it and its driver did nothing wrong, noting the Blake family was in a pick-up truck that lost control on the opposite side of a divided interstate, came through a grass median and ran into the truck.

    Yea, sorry for their loss but $90 million dollars due to their own negligence? This is absurd!

    Sounds like a case where they stipulated the truck should never have been there at that time, which is ridiculous on the face of it. Maybe the pickup party should not have been on the roads.

    Got to be something else to the case the story is omitting because no part of it makes sense based on what's pointed out in the story.

    Oh. Change of venue to Harris county? Now it makes more sense.
