$874,000 for Auto Accident
A Hunterdon County jury on March 10 awarded a pizza deliveryman $874,000 for leg injuries he suffered when his car was struck by a pickup truck. On Jan 24, 2002 Walid Aboutay a Domino's Pizza employee was headed south on Sergeantsville Road near Flemington when the truck, headed north, tried to pass another car and hit Aboutay's vehicle.
The truck's driver, Matthew Savarino was driving erratically honking his horn and tailgating the car he was trying to pass. The jury found Savarino 100 percent liable for injuries to Aboutay, who had multiple fractures to his right leg and required the insertion of two screws. A worker's compensation lien will reduce the award by $24,000.
