Whose fault is it if you roll your truck?
The American court system is totally out of control. They are just applying the Alex Jones trial logic to everything.
Ford Motor Co. is facing a potential $1.7 billion in punitive damages after a Georgia jury reached a verdict Friday in a case involving a 2014 rollover of a Ford F-250 pickup truck that left two people dead.
The Gwinnett County jury determined that damages should be imposed on Ford for selling 5.2 million Super Duty trucks with what plaintiffs’ attorneys said were dangerously weak roofs that could crush passengers in a rollover accident, according to James Butler, a lawyer representing the plaintiffs in the case.
No one who flips a truck has a reasonable expectation of surviving, unless the truck is advertised to be capable of rolling, like for example a Jeep. The F-250 is simply too heavy for really any roof to be able to survive a flip, so if you’re too fat or too tall to get pushed onto the floor, you’re definitely going to die, and it’s not Ford’s fault.
This ruling is so silly that it seems like they are putting out this ruling just to harm the court system, to make it more ridiculous and unfair.
Far from trying to maintain order, the US government appears hellbent on destroying order in the country.
The easiest way for people to lose all faith in the government, and to feel like there is no reason to follow the law, is to make it clear that the court system is completely corrupt, and you have no chance of getting fair treatment by the law.
No one could possibly trust the US legal system for anything at this point, and there is no way to fix it. Like, no mechanism exists to fix a totally corrupt court system, other than revolution.
It’s part of why the Founding Fathers wrote all that stuff about how people were going to have to eventually violently overthrow the government.
