Wabash is considering all options in response to the St. Louis Circuit Court ruling

LAFAYETTE, Ind., Sept. 6, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Wabash (NYSE: WNC) today announced that it is evaluating all available legal options in response to a St. Louis jury's verdict in Williams et al. v. Wabash, a 2019 car crash in which a passenger vehicle traveling at high speed struck the rear of a nearly stopped 2004 Wabash trailer.

“Although this was a tragic accident, we disagree with the jury's verdict and firmly believe it is not supported by the facts or the law,” said Kristin Glazner, Wabash's general counsel and chief administrative officer. “There was never any rear impact protection or trailer safety technology that would have made a difference here.”
