The people harmed with less money for lawyers probably won’t get anything, I can see that happening. Automakers might get a payout for the shipping delays, but

The people harmed with less money for lawyers probably won’t get anything, I can see that happening. Automakers might get a payout for the shipping delays, but people waiting longer for their new car won’t see any of it. The people’s commutes that will be X minutes longer for the next while will have to just suck it up. Same for anyone paying a few percent more for goods that have to be imported through other ports.
