Defendant Glen Moore Transport, Inc. is believed to be a i;1 ~: , ~I !:' ~ ~~ }i Pennsylvania corporation, whose principal place of business is at 1171 Shearer Drive, Carlisle, PA 17013. 4. Plaintiff is a trucking company, and engages in operations from, to and between various points throughout the United States. 1 L !: ,~ -.L_. - , ,I "" , ~ I " "" ,'",,-~, ~ ',- "~' 'n-' "<, ','.- , Iii.., 5. On or about April 25, 1999, plaintiff's employee was operating a certain tractor trailer unit in the State of Oklahoma, such tractor trailer unit being a 1997 Kenworth, Model 7-2000, identified as McCauley Trucking Unit No. 172. 6. On the morning of April 25, 1999, at approximately 1:30 A.M., Tractor Unit No. 172, operated on behalf of plaintiff, stopped at a fuel island in Travel Center of America, at 501 South Morgan Road, Oklahoma City, OK. 7. While Unit 172 was stopped, the tractor trailer unit operating in front of it drifted backward and collided with the front end of Unit 172, thereby causing physical damage to the front of the said Kenworth truck tractor. 8. The motor vehicle that collided into The McCauley Trucking Company Tractor No. 172 was driven by Defendant Kumler. 9. The motor vehicle that Defendant Kumler was operating at the time that she collided with plaintiff's Unit No. 172 was owned by Defendant Glen Moore Transport, Inc. 10. Defendant Kumler was an employee of Defendant Glen Moore Transport, Inc., and as such, was an agent working for and on behalf of Defendant Glen Moore Transport, Inc. 11. At the time that Defendant Kumler was operating the motor vehicle that collided into Plaintiff's Unit No. 172, she was operating within the scope of her employment. 12. Attached hereto as Appendix A is a list of the damages 2 - -'"'-' "' "' " -- - w ~. " ~ and the cost of the repair for the physical har.m that defendants caused to plaintiff's vehicle No. 172, when the vehicle Defendant Kumler was driving as an agent for Defendant Glen Moore Transport, Inc., collided with plaintiff's truck tractor No. 172. 13. In addition to the physical har.m that defendants' actions caused to plaintiff's vehicle No. 172, defendants have also created har.m through down time. 14. Plaintiff allocates the down time caused by and arising out of the said accident as five days. 15. The cost to plaintiff per day for the nonuse of a vehicle, which is also known as down time, is $450.00. 16. Five days of down time at $450.00 per day represents $2,250.00 of additional damage, which defendants caused to plaintiff as a result of colliding into vehicle No. 172. 17. In colliding with vehicle No. 172, defendants were negligent in that Defendant Kumler failed to keep her vehicle stationary at the fuel island and failed to prevent it from moving backward when plaintiff's vehicle was parked behind it. 18. By per.mitting the vehicle Defendant Kumler was operating on behalf of her employer, Defendant Glen Moore Transport, Inc., to glide backward and to collide with plaintiff's Unit No. 172, defendants were negligent in their conduct and behavior toward plaintiff. 19. As a result of the negligence of Defendant Donzella M. 3 , ~~ -',=-" 1.,-- , Kumler, directly and vicariously imputed to Defendant Glen Moore Transport, Inc., defendants have caused damage to plaintiff in the amount of $6,202.32.
