Reported 7 months ago

In a recent trial, a Georgia jury granted over $47 million to the family of a 35-year-old truck driver who was killed in a crash in 2017 involving a former driver of Schneider National. The verdict apportioned 100% of the blame to Schneider and the driver, Darryl Joachim. The incident occurred on Interstate 285, leading to a wrongful death lawsuit. The case revealed details implicating Joachim's actions and history with Schneider, resulting in his termination for failing a drug test and a track record of safety violations. Schneider National and Joachim may consider appealing the sizable verdict.
