The boy’s mother, Judy Rojo, said no amount of money can bring back the 3-year-old who was with his mother when he died after being pinned under a speeding car. On Wednesday, she returned to the site of the crash.

This makes as much sense as suing a gun maker for a homicide victim's shooting death.
Its all about who has the deepest pockets....
ReplyDelete“... no amount of money can bring back the 3-year-old ... but we’re suing for more anyway because we can”.
ReplyDeleteMy sympathies are with the family - a stupid driver drove a car with which he was unfamiliar and a child died as a result. The company has no responsibility for the driver’s actions; the employee took the keys without consent. While “no amount of money can bring back the 3-year-old”, going after more is a dick move. People die everyday as a result of another’s actions - that’s life. Sorry for your loss but give it a rest and use some of that award money for counseling.
Age old adage: Morality doesn't count with Ambulance chasing shysters who will rake off 45% of the winnings.
ReplyDeleteOf course, the ambulance chasers wouldn't have work if people didn't sue at the drop of a hat, and they wouldn't sue if juries didn't hand out bumper pay-days and/or people didn't settle simply to avoid the cost of litigation.
DeleteAmbulance chasers aren't a supply in search of a demand...
This is more about lawyers suing anyone and anything that is in the orbit of the incident. Shakespeare had it right: "first we kill all the lawyers".
ReplyDeleteLawyers, F* em all except the one I might need someday.
ReplyDeleteI think the only case to be made is why they made this car for the street in the first place. A "Hellcat" Charger packs 750 HP if I'm not mistaken, and that's waaaay too much guts to be "street legal".
ReplyDeleteKind of interesting how after, what, decades of de-tuning vehicles they are making these power machines again.
DeleteInteresting that the claim dodge bought the car back under the lemon law. Years ago spent some years under the generals thumb at general motors division. Cadilac lemon was bought back and the effin cadillac dealer of all people sold it to a coworker who discovered it buy calling the original buyer from glove box paper work. He came out on top but it was hard to believe the dealer sold it again. Not enough space here to tell my experience with several dodge truck owners in the early nineties. I now always save any paperwork in a purchased car.
