Edmond, Oklahoma Jury Awards $750,000 in Rear-End Collision

A plaintiff alleged a commercial truck driver, operating a vehicle for a motor carrier and owned by another entity, caused a multi-vehicle collision in Oklahoma. The plaintiff claimed the truck driver was distracted by an electronic device while driving on a highway, leading the truck to strike the plaintiff's vehicle and push it into another. The plaintiff subsequently filed a vehicular liability complaint against the driver, the motor carrier, and the truck owner in the Oklahoma District Court of Oklahoma County. The motor carrier and the driver removed the case to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma. They filed an answer asserting affirmative defenses, including comparative negligence, lack of proximate causation, and failure to mitigate damages. The truck owner also filed an answer. The plaintiff later moved for either leave to amend the complaint or voluntary dismissal of the action without prejudice. The court denied the request to amend but granted the motion for voluntary dismissal without prejudice, and a judgment was entered accordingly.

The parents of a daughter killed in a car crash filed a product liability lawsuit against Toyota Motor Corporation and several related entities. Their daughter died while being driven home from driver's education in a 2020 Toyota Corolla. The plaintiffs alleged the vehicle was defective and that the Toyota defendants were negligent in its manufacturing and design, contributing to the fatal accident. The Toyota defendants contested the allegations, arguing there was no defect in the vehicle and no negligence in its manufacturing, design, or marketing. The court granted the Toyota defendants' partial motion for summary judgment regarding the strict liability claim in February 2025, finding the plaintiffs failed to provide sufficient evidence of a product defect making the vehicle unreasonably dangerous. In June 2025, the court granted summary judgment in favor of all Toyota defendants on the remaining negligence claims, determining there was no manufacturer negligence. These rulings concluded the case with a complete victory for the defendants. In August 2025, the court awarded the Toyota defendants $25,628.18 in attorneys' fees and costs, to be paid by the plaintiffs.
