A tribunal in England has ruled that a US-style class action lawsuit can go ahead against five car carrier operators that broke European Union competition laws.
The lawsuit seeks compensation for millions of UK motorists, who claim they were overcharged for vehicle deliveries because of price fixing.
In 2018, the European Commission imposed a €395m fine on vehicle carriers Mitsui OSK Lines, K Line, NYK Line, Compania Sud Americana de Vapores (CSAV), Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics and its sister company, Eukor.
