The plaintiff's account was not credible and conflicted with contemporaneous police and medical records and objective facts (vehicle trajectory inconsistent with steering failure); defendants proved a regular maintenance regime and absence of defect; on the balance of probabilities plaintiff failed to prove defendants' negligence; claim dismissed and any nominal damages are offset by a larger employees' compensation award so no damages payable.
