General Motors is on trial today as a jury decides whether injuries sustained in a 2014 car crash were the result of a faulty ignition switch, which turns off airbag deployment and has been linked to 124 deaths and hundreds of injuries. The case is considered a bellwether in the ignition scandal since the outcome could have consequences for similar cases; thousands of people have claimed damages linked to the defects, which General Motors admitted it hid for years before recalling millions of vehicles last year.
