Saw this on CNN earlier..
They were talking about a man in Minne, who ended up imprisoned because of his 'involvement' in a car crash that killed 3 (a few years back).. the blame was squarely put onto the driver's shoulders, and he was locked up. He was driving a Toyota.... LINO LAKES, Minn. ? Ever since his 1996 Toyota Camry shot up an interstate ramp, plowing into the back of an Oldsmobile in a horrific crash that killed three people, Koua Fong Lee insisted he had done everything he could to stop the car. A jury didn't believe him, and a judge sentenced him to eight years in prison. But now, new revelations of safety problems with Toyotas have Lee pressing to get his case reopened and his freedom restored. Here is the article: http://news.yahoo.co...ota_fatal_crash Wow |
Wow....I see many lawsuits in the future...

Holy shiiiit!!! Toyota is not just killing people but also ruining peoples lives :nono:

Guys, please read this article from Ed Wallace and Business Week.
http://www.businessw...=rss_topStories Wallace raises some very reasonable points and asks some very pertinent questions. This is the best article on the issue that I have read. I maintain that in the fullness of time, driver error - just as it was with the Audi 5000 - will be proven to be the cause of these issues and accidents. Please pay particular attention to the discussion in Wallace's article about the lady who testified before Congress about her Lexus. Please also pay particular attention to the discussion in the article about the independence or otherwise of some of the witnesses who testified who are also being paid by a "safety organization" that seems to be involved in a number of the lawsuits. It is enlightening reading. |

some claim they did. one lady (the one who testfied) said she put it in all gears, park, neutral, reverse, eBrake and nothing happened.. she was at full throttle.. then it suddenly started to slow down i dont know, like the Wallace article says, we can look at this two ways; it's a damn shame on Toyota's part, or, it's fishy/fabricated |
