Tailgaters are dangerous, too.  I am representing a
family of four that was rear-ended by a Tyson Foods 18
wheeler on a freeway exit ramp.  The dad got hurt and
needed surgery on his shoulder and missed 8 months of
work...which put a big strain on the marriage....and
two years later they are still dealing with this.
Tyson offered them a whopping $3,000. Had they been
half way reasonable, there never would have been a
lawsuit.   Wait till the jury hears the story...you
know...those blinding lights bearing down on you...then
crunch!  I am sure we will get justice.
Moral...tailgaters are more than an annoyance, they can
ruin you life.
