An Illinois man and his teenage daughter have been awarded a $6 million settlement for serious injuries they sustained in a motorcycle accident near Chicago in 2006. According to reports in the Chicago Sun-Times, Richard Wright was riding his motorcycle with his 15-year-old daughter in Joliet, Illinois, when they were struck by a Chevrolet truck turning left at a stop sign.
