Paul Walker's Father Sues Porsche For Wrongful Death, Negligence
Almost two years after Paul Walker's death in a car crash in Santa Clarita, Calif, the actor's father has sued Porsche for wrongful death and negligence.
In a lawsuit filed on Wednesday and obtained by EW, Paul William Walker III says that the Porsche Carrera GT that the actor was riding in lacked safety features that could have saved his life, and that Porsche knew the model had a history of instability and control issues. He seeks unspecified damages.
Walker was sitting in the passenger seat when his friend Roger Rodas lost control of the car and crashed into a tree, causing the car to burst into flames. Both men died in the crash: Walker was 40, while Rodas was 38.
According to the AP, Rodas's widow, Kristine, also filed a lawsuit for wrongful death on Wednesday November 25th. The lawsuits follow a similar wrongful death lawsuit filed by Walker's daughter, Meadow Walker, in September 2015.
The company responded to Meadow Walker's lawsuit in November, saying Walker "knowingly and voluntarily assumed all risk, perils and danger in respect to the use of the subject 2005 Carrera GT, that the perils, risk and dangers were open and obvious and known to him, and that he chose to conduct himself in a manner as to expose himself to such perils, dangers and risks, thus assuming all the risks involved in using the vehicle.
A representative for Porsche did not immediately respond to EW's request for comment.
