Trucking Industry Applauds Enactment of Legal Reform in Indiana

The trucking industry applauded Indiana’s enactment of civil justice reform yesterday that amends the state’s seatbelt admissibility statute pertaining to automobile accident litigation. The legislation, which passed the legislature with bipartisan support and was signed into law by Governor Holcomb, would make evidence of a litigant’s non-usage of a safety belt admissible in court in most cases.
