All you need is a warning sign?
Posted on April 11th, 2008 by TechDigger
Driving home today, I found myself behind a dump truck staring at the sign on the back, “warning: stay 200 feet behind, not responsible for damage”. If you were close enough to read the sign, you were certainly closer than 200 feet.
Can they and do they really get away with this? If some baseball size piece of rock goes bouncing out of the truck and onto my car, shattering my windshield, causing me to swerve and create who knows how big of an accident, is the owner of the truck not responsible because of the sign? Of course, with tort reform in Texas, the issue is moot but still, who is trying to escape responsibility here?
