One driver was in a pickup truck when another vehicle failed to stop at a stop sign and hit the rear side of the pickup. The pickup lost control, rolled over, and landed on its roof. The driver suffered severe spinal injuries resulting in paralysis. The driver and their spouse sued the vehicle manufacturer, alleging the truck's roof, restraint system, and warnings were defectively designed. They claimed the roof did not provide adequate protection in the rollover and the seat belt allowed too much movement. The lawsuit also argued the manufacturer did not test the vehicle for roof strength standards in rollovers. The jury found the other driver 10% at fault and awarded damages.
