St. Petersburg Times (Florida), "Tiremaker Settles Suit with Widow"
The widow of an Inverness man who was killed in a 2001 accident when his tire blew out and caused his Ford minivan to flip on Interstate 75 has settled with the tire manufacturer, despite the company's insistence that it was not liable in the crash.

Reaching a settlement would keep legal ordeals out of the courtroom and be less expensive and less painful for the parties involved, said Bridgestone/Firestone spokesman Dan MacDonald, whose company manufactured the Dayton Tire, which was on Howard Stone's 1992 Aerostar van duringthe crash.
