Mr T’s car had been into the garage
Case Studies » Road & Traffic Accidents
Mr T’s car had been into the garage for a full set of new tyres. A few days later while driving at speed on the motorway he had a front offside tyre blowout. His vehicle rolled over and although he was fortunate not to have been more seriously injured he sustained leg and chest injuries. Because the tyres were new we had them examined by an expert and we found that the tyre which blew out was defective. Mr T claimed against the garage who replaced the tyres and he was awarded £7,500 for his injuries. The garage managed to pass the claim on to the tyre manufacturers, but that made no difference to Mr T’s claim.
