Toyota settles suit over California crash for $10 million
(Reuters) - Toyota has agreed to pay $10 million to settle legal claims from the family of a California state trooper and three relatives whose fatal car wreck helped spark the automaker's wide-ranging safety recall, lawyers said on Thursday.

The family's lawsuit, filed in March in San Diego Superior Court, was part of a wave of product-liability and wrongful-death actions brought against Toyota Motor Corp and subsidiaries over complaints of sudden, unintended acceleration in its vehicles.

1. I will add, even though Toyota did not admit
guilt, the fact that they are setting and the recalls pretty much says they are guilty.

So to all those who blamed the driver...
