Confidential commercial motor vehicle settlement arising from an I-20 collision in which a tractor-trailer failed to maintain lane and struck the rear of a passenger vehicle. The plaintiff sustained multiple traumatic and spinal injuries, ultimately requiring a spinal cord stimulator. The trucking company and driver denied liability. Early investigation, independent eyewitness testimony, accident reconstruction, hours-of-service analysis, and examination of the carrier’s safety policies and hazardous-materials training helped defeat the defenses. Lawsuit filed in the State Court of DeKalb County, Georgia.
