Source Policy: Every verdict and settlement in this database is sourced from a credible news organization (AJC, Detroit News, Georgia Public Broadcasting, CNBC, FreightWaves, Commercial Carrier Journal, Trailer Body Builders, Transport Topics, Law.com, CarComplaints.com) or peer-reviewed research publication (ATRI). No entry is sourced from a plaintiff or defense law firm's website. Dollar amounts reflect reported figures at time of verdict; some awards were subsequently reduced on appeal, settled, or are pending appellate review — those facts are noted in each entry. All cases are a matter of public record. Last updated: April 2026.
