A trial judge was correct to let jurors view a trimmed-down version of GoPro camera footage that showed a motorcyclist driving erratically before a fatal crash, the state Superior Court has ruled in a decision affirming the $3.1 million verdict in favor of the biker's family in the case.

The appeals court's decision was the first on Pennsylvania evidence to address the handling of GoPro video, records show.

The defense had wanted the jury to see the footage in its entirety, arguing that it would have given the jury a fuller picture of the plaintiff's aggressive driving.
