The mother of actress Lindsay Lohan, 61, filed a civil lawsuit against Penske Truck Leasing Co. on Feb. 27. in the New York Supreme Court.
The star’s legal representatives stated that the driver failed to “observe and obey the traffic control equipment and traffic light controls” and also failed to “look in the direction in which the vehicle was traveling”, which led to the collision.
The driver is accused of “carelessly, recklessly and negligently failing to and/or properly and timely use of braking mechanisms, signaling devices and steering systems,” according to the complaint.
In the conspiracy described, the moving company’s 2016 Freightliner crashed into the “rear and passenger side” of a 2008 Chevrolet in New York’s Murray Hill neighborhood around 10 a.m.
The lawsuit also states: “Based on the foregoing, plaintiff is entitled to recover for non-economic losses and for such economic losses that do not fall within the definition of fundamental economic loss set forth in section 5102(a) of the law. New York State Insurance Law.
“As a result of the foregoing, Plaintiff suffered serious injury as defined in Section 5102(d) of the New York State Insurance Code.”
It continues: “As a result of the foregoing, plaintiff has been damaged in an amount exceeding the jurisdictional limits of any lower courts that would otherwise have jurisdiction.”
The filing comes years after Dina herself was sentenced to 18 days in jail for a 2020 drunken collision at a Long Island steakhouse.
In January last year, Dina crashed her Mercedes into a Honda in the parking lot of the Outback Steakhouse in Merrick, Long Island.

She then attempted to flee the scene but was chased by the Honda driver. Police said they found Dina in the driver’s seat of her car outside her home.
Dina was taken into custody after she allegedly refused to take a breathalyzer test and verbally abused officers.
The arresting officer noted that her breath smelled of alcohol and that her eyes appeared “glassy and bloodshot.”
She was sentenced in December 2021 in Nassau County Court in Mineola, Long Island, after accepting a plea deal.
Dina’s arrest in January is her second for a DWI. She was arrested for drink driving in 2013 after police stopped her for speeding at 75mph in a 55mph zone.
Her blood alcohol level at the time was found to be more than twice the legal limit.
Elsewhere, Dina revealed that she recently underwent a facelift and neck lift in December 2023.
The mother spoke to Page six about having a custom facial rejuvenation surgery performed earlier this month, along with a facelift and neck lift.
“I’ve always believed in growing old gracefully, but if you want to do something for yourself, go for it,” she said. To get the look, she turned to Dr. Ira Savetsky, a plastic surgeon based in New York’s Upper East Side.
Dina is shown following her DWI conviction hearing on December 3, 2021, making her way to the back of a police van to be taken to the Nassau County Jail for 18 days.

The family recently expanded after Lindsay welcomed her first child — a son named Luai — with husband Bader Shammas in July 2023.
In August, Lindsay showed off her postpartum body on Instagram, writing, “I’m so proud of what this body has been able to achieve during these months of pregnancy and now, recovery.
