Actually Archrms that has already happened here in this state. Several years ago a drunk drive who was in a Ford Bronco and had more than one DUI ticket ran off over the edge of a canyon and was crippled. He sued Ford because their vehicle didn't protect him from himself is what it mattered to and collected a huge amount. The fact he was drunk and had prior tickets for that didn't matter at all. If he had been driving a Chevy the outcome would have been the same. To me that is kind of like buying a gun, taking it home to your machine shop and retooling it so it will fire full automatic and then suing the gun manufacturer because it had been tampered with.
