so, i am confused as well... if the other trucker ran the stop sign, how come that truck driver's company not making the settlement? is it because there was not actual accident (collision) by the trucks themselves? i can see why the trucker that swerved his company should not have paid anything even under UM coverage. they should be going after the other company especially if there is a witness and proof that he had run the stop sign.

think about this - would that not be the same as swerving to miss a deer! it's a loss of control incident.

so is the judge redefining the insurance coverage?
