Case Overview

In August 2019, a minor passenger in a vehicle stopped at the intersection of Easton Road and Bristol Road in Warminster, Pennsylvania, was involved in a rear-end collision. The defendant's vehicle reportedly struck the plaintiffs' vehicle from behind after failing to stop.

The defendant generally denied all allegations of negligence and injury.

The parties subsequently reached a settlement, with the defendant agreeing to pay $8,000 to the minor plaintiff.
