Wal-Mart: What PR Won't Fix

Sorry to say this, but the trucking company is the victim here. Ms. Shank drove her car into the path of a truck and the truck hit her. Somehow, the trucking company was found to be partially liable because the jury bought into the notion that the truck driver "could have stopped" his truck. I would wonder what you would think someone drove their car in front of you like that. I know Ms. Shank is terribly injured but it was pretty much her own fault. I know a lot of us make similar mistakes and get away with them, but sometimes we don't and we aren't able to blame others for it. I have sympathy for the lady who burnt herself with hot coffee, but I don't think she needs to be compensated.
