Terrible story. I wonder how much money the families will get, regardless of appeal. Not sure if it is by state or national, but there was just a news story in Colorado surrounding the major accident that shut down I70 and killed multiple people. It stated that the trucking company that was involved (caused) the accident only had something like $750,000 in liability insurance as that was all that is required.

That's terrible. Be interesting to see if any of the owners can be held personally responsible. IIRC, if there's any hint of negligence, it could pierce the veil of corp. liability protection, and open up the owners and managers to civil liability.
