However, not all products contain sufficient instructions or warnings. Even if the product is generally safe, a consumer may suffer injuries if it does not come with sufficient instructions.

Manufacturers are required to foresee any reasonable uses of their product and provide precautions against such uses. For instance, for a can opener, a manufacturer should expect the opener to be used on many different types of cans.
However, products are not always used for their intended use. For instance, the can opener could be used to cut open fruit. If it were used in this way and the user was injured, then the manufacturer may not be liable.
The liability of the manufacturer for the injuries will depend on whether using the can opener was a reasonable use. That determination will typically be up to a jury or abitration judge.

Given that they operate such large vehicles, fatigued truck drivers pose a serious risk of injury to other drivers on the road. If a truck driver swerves and hits another car, the damage to the other car could be severe.
