Toyota is doing damage control, primarily because the audio on this car crash is so horrifying, so vivid, they figure they will lose that case no matter what.

Very sad, those people did not have to die.

There is more to that story than we’ve heard, and maybe we’ll never hear the entire story because the people involved are dead. I find it very hard to believe that an experienced highway patrol officer didn’t have any more presence of mind than was shown in this case. What was happening before the phone call?

I have heard that the car was a rental, so the driver was not familiar with the car and I’m sure that contributed to the situation, but even so there is a _lot_ of information missing as to what really happened.
