California judge rules Porsche not at fault in crash killing actor Paul Walker

A federal judge in California has ruled that the Porsche Carrera GT is not at fault for the 2013 crash that killed actor Paul Walker.
    
The suit had been brought by Kristine Rodas, the widow of the car's driver, Roger Rodas.
     
Walker and Rodas were killed on November 30, 2013, when the Porsche went out of control on a road in Santa Clarita, California and crashed into a power pole and several trees before bursting into flames. 
     
A 2013 coroner's report said Walker survived the crash but died of injuries from the impact and the resulting fire.
     
A separate lawsuit brought by Paul's daughter Meadow will not be impacted by this decision.
     
Meadow's suit says the car had multiple design flaws which may have caused the crash.
