Plaintiff, Adams Electric Cooperative, Inc., is a nonprofit electric cooperative corporation organized and existing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to furnish electric energy to persons in rural areas, with its principal office at 1338 Biglerville Road, Gettysburg, Adams County, Pennsylvania 17325. 2. Defendant, Howard E. Schlusser, Jr., is an adult individual residing at 4707 Enola Road, Newville, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17241. 3. At the time referred to below, Plaintiff owned an electric pole along the northern side of Enola Road (SR. 0944/150) in Lower Frankford Township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, located approximately 200 feet west of its intersection with Old Mill Road (SR 4025) as part of its electric energy distribution system, including the electric lines strung therefrom and the hardware and equipment affixed thereto. 4. On December 13, 1999, at or about 11:00 P.M., a motor vehicle operated by Defendant in a westerly direction on Enola Road violently collided with Plaintiff's electric pole mentioned above, causing the damage referred to below. 5. The collision was due solely to Defendant's recklessness, carelessness and negligence in the operation of his vehicle. 6. Defendant's reckless, careless and negligence operation of his vehicle consisted of the following: (a) failing to keep his vehicle under proper and adequate control; (b) driving his vehicle in excess of the speed limit; (c) operating his vehicle at a rate of speed greater than was reasonable and proper having due regard for the conditions then existing; -~. --- ,-- = -.. . " '" __ .. ., ~ l ". , " " , " . "' ;;, ". r:c' '"' d.. L-, '," <' '> ,)~,..' ' (d) operating his vehicle at a speed greater than would permit him to stop within the assured clear distance ahead; (e) failing to exercise reasonable care and caution while operating his vehicle on the roadway; (f) failing to have the vehicle that he was operating under proper control so as to avoid hitting Plaintiff's electric pole; (g) failing to stop before colliding with Plaintiff's electric pole; (h) failing to comply with the provisions of the Pennsylvania Motor Vehicle Code relating to the operation of motor vehicles, specifically as they relate to the aforesaid acts of negligence; and (i) engaging in such other acts or omissions as may be revealed in the course of discovery, or at the trial of this case. 7. As a direct and proximate result of Defendant's aforesaid recklessness, carelessness and negligence, Plaintiff's electric pole was sheared off, leaving it in a dangerous position exposing operators of vehicles and pedestrians traveling on or along Enola Road and the property owners adjacent thereto, their guests and invitees to the potential risks of death or serious bodily injury should they or their vehicles come into contact with the energized wires attached to the top of the broken pole. 8. After learning about such collision and the damage caused to its pole, Plaintiff promptly dispatched one of its crews to set a new pole to replace the broken pole and to transfer the electric lines from that broken pole to the new pole. 9. The damages suffered by Plaintiff as a consequence of Defendant's actions were those costs it incurred, fairly and reasonably allocated on a functional basis in accordance with established accounting principles, when it promptly set its new electric pole, transferred the electric lines and removed the broken pole, to wit: Direct Labor Costs $1,674.01 Overhead Costs 3,845.68 Replacement Materials Used (pole fully depreciated) 165.87 ,,~ -,',', -'--"'" " ,.. , ._~ ,J_.' ,-' " ''--.;<, , ,,' ~'."" ~. .' l~&lililj,hh Meals for Line Crew DAMAGES 60.63 $5.746.19 10. Despite repeated demands made to him by Plaintiff requesting payment of such damages, Defendant has failed and refused and continues to fail and refuse to pay Plaintiff the same. 11. This action is subject to compulsory arbitration under the provisions of Cumberland County Local Rule 1301-1. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff requests judgment in its favor and against Defendant in the amount of $5,746.19, plus legal interest from April 6, 2000 and costs of suit. TEETE ,TEETER & TEETER By: el E.
