The family of a man and his adult daughter who died in a truck accident recovered $6.665 million dollars. The father and daughter died after their car’s rear tire blew, causing them to veer across the highway in Johnston County. A semi-truck driver failed to brake sufficiently to avoid a collision even though he had plenty of time to do so. The rear tire that blew out was equipped with a valve stem that was subject to a product recall due to premature cracking.
