There is a reason that accident is in the vocabulary, and courts should realize this. Any dummy who uses a step ladder and falls off, should not be able to sue the manufacturer of the step ladder for the dummy's lack of common sense. This also is the case with the Volvo owner who hit the starter while the car was still in gear.

A manufacturer should not be part of any litigation where there was no flaw in the manufactured item. The Volvo did what it was designed to do.

The lawyer included Volvo in the lawsuit only for the "deep pockets", when he should have just presented the case as one individual against another.
