Meadow, the teenage daughter of late actor Paul Walker, has been awarded £7.15 million ($10.5 million) from the estate of Roger Rodas, the man who drove the Porsche with Walker during the fatal accident.

Walker was in the passenger seat of the Porsche Carrera GT, which was driven by Roger Rodas. The car maintained a speed of 80-93 mph when it crashed into the trees and burst into flames in Santa Clarita, Los Angeles, last 2013.

Jeff Milam, Meadow Walker's legal representative, revealed in a statement that the awarded settlement will go into Meadow's trust fund.

Milam added that the payment from Roger Rodas' estate for Meadow Walker's trust is only a fraction of Paul Walker's potential income as a top-billed actor if he had not passed away. Rodas' responsibility for the fatal car crash was only partial.

The settlement was finalized last November 2014 but other details are still undisclosed.

Meadow, Paul Walker's only child, still intends to continue her lawsuit against Porsche as they were directly responsible for manufacturing the defective vehicle.

Milam claimed that Walker sustained injuries from the impact of the crash but died due to severe burns because of Porsche's defective design in safety. Rodas filed a similar claim against Porsche.

However, Porsche has maintained their stand that Walker was responsible for his own demise. Los Angeles officials conducted a four-month investigation and concluded that the cause of the car crash was overspeeding and not a car defect.

The federal judge ruled in favor of the car company last Monday, stating that there was no "competent evidence" that the death of Rodas was due to any wrongdoing caused by the defendant.

The 40-year-old actor's death caused a delay in the filming of the seventh installment of the Fast and Furious franchise. The film was released in 2015 and became one of the highest-earning films of all time.
