The High Court found the Sessions Court misdirected itself by undervaluing credible eyewitness evidence and failing to account for incomplete patrols and investigation; on the balance of probabilities the plaintiffs established that an oil spill likely caused the accident and the highway operators breached their duty of care, so liability is apportioned equally 50/50 between the first plaintiff and defendant and the appeal is allowed with costs.
