A New Jersey jury has ordered a truck driver to pay $750,000 after finding that he contributed to an accident that injured a motorcyclist. During the trial, jurors heard testimony that the truck driver had waved another driver into traffic. As the other driver crossed a highway, he collided with a motorcycle ridden by the plaintiff. New Jersey law allows drivers to be held liable if they wave others into traffic. AP, Philadelphia Inquirer 04/18/2009
