Tamara Lis v. Peerless (Filed in New Haven, SF assumed case February 2013). An oil truck spilled its contents across a well traveled highway, and then left the scene providing no warning to oncoming traffic. The plaintiff was badly injured when her car hit the oil slick and went out of control. She had a policy of insurance with Peerless that is contractually obligated to pay for damages caused when vehicles hit and run or otherwise cause accidents on the roadway and leave. Peerless refuses to pay on this claim thereby requiring her to go to trial.
