Case Details

After driving several hours late at night in the rain, an 18 year-old in an SUV went off the side of the road and rolled over. There were no witnesses and he retained no memory of the accident. He suffered partial paraplegia, necessitating a wheelchair, and also suffered brain damage which impaired his ability to talk. Accident reconstruction experts concluded that the vehicle went off the road at a point where there was no curb, and then rolled over when the left tires struck a curb as the vehicle proceeded off the highway. Experts were used to establish that the vehicle's defective design made it prone to rollover and uncrashworthy.
