A survivor of a recent pile up crash in Austin has filed a $100 million lawsuit against multiple parties. 

The March 13th wreck happened on Interstate 35 in Austin, Texas after a truck driver on central nervous system depressants crashed into a line of stopped traffic, killing five people and injuring 11 others. Nathan Jonard, a survivor of the accident, filed a lawsuit regarding the incident this week. 

According to KVUE, Jonard’s lawsuit accuses truck driver Solomun Weldekeal Araya of operating a commercial vehicle with “absolute disregard for human life.” The lawsuit claims that the crash left him unconscious in his mangled vehicle, and as a result he is suffering from spinal injuries, broken bones, and severe cuts all over his body. Jonard says his life is permanently altered, and the suit seeks $100 million in damages for medical expenses, lost wages, and emotional suffering. 

The suit also names Amazon and ZBN Transport, the trucking company Araya was working for, and claims that both companies are responsible for hiring Araya despite an alleged history of reckless driving and safety violations. 

Two people injured in the crash are still in the hospital due to the severity of their injuries. The lawsuit comes in the wake of several bills introduced by Texas lawmakers that could reduce the amount of damages victims can be awarded in lawsuits against trucking companies.
