Nuclear Verdicts

What Are Nuclear Verdicts?

Nuclear verdicts can be defined as a verdict that comes with a jury award of at least $10 million.

These verdicts are enough to make an entire business go under, and are very common in the trucking and fleet management industry. Therefore, they are especially important for fleet-centric businesses to avoid accidents with the help of tools such as video telematics and driver behaviour analysis through fleet management software.

What Are Some Effects of Nuclear Verdicts

Nuclear verdicts are really detrimental to most fleet-centric businesses. They can also have some bad effects on a global and larger scale.

– Business failures
– Harmed national and global logistics
– Disturbed trucking business ecosystem and economy
– Discouragement to small businesses
