Woman gets €518,000 for severe road crash injuries
Adeola Ozoruchi, 42, a care worker, native of Nigeria and naturalised Irish citizen since 2005, sued over the accident which happened on January 12, 2013, at Dromore West, Co Sligo, as she was driving from her then place of work, the Cheshire Home in Co Mayo, to her then home in Sligo.
Mr Justice Kevin Cross said the injuries were suffered after a motor vehicle owned by Kilcawley Building and Civil Engineering (Sligo) Ltd and Kilcawley Building and Civil Engineering Ltd, and driven by Martin Tuffy, overtook a vehicle driven by Michael Crean, Camphill, Culleens, Dromore West, and collided into Ms Ozoruchi’s car. She was trapped in her car and had to be cut out following the severe impact.
