JURY TRIAL DEMANDED
PLAINTIFFS' REPLY TO NEW MATTER OF DEFENDANT
AND NOW come the Plaintiffs, by and through their attorneys, Angino & Rovner, P.C., and
hereby enter the following Reply to the New Matter of Defendant as follows:
27. No response is necessary.
28. Defendant's averment is a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is
required. To the extent the averment may be deemed factual, it is hereby specifically denied. By
way of amplification, all of Plaintiffs' injuries and damages are recoverable in the instant action.
The Pennsylvania Motor Vehicle Financial Responsibility Law in no way limits the damages
Plaintiffs may recover herein.
29. Defendant's averment is a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is
required. To the extent the averment may be deemed factual, it is hereby specifically denied. By
way of amplification, Plaintiffs claims are not limited. Plaintiffs have plead that Plaintiff
Rhonda L. Reinford sustained a serious injury and scarring, resulting in a serious impairment of
bodily function and permanent serious disfigurement. Further, as the instant Defendant was
charged with DUI, pled guilty, and entered the ARD Program, the Plaintiffs are granted full tort
status. 75 Pa.C.S.A. § 1705(d)(1)(i). Therefore, Plaintiffs' injuries and damages are recoverable
in the instant action.
30. Defendant's averment is a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is
required. To the extent the averment may be deemed factual, it is hereby specifically denied. By
way of amplification, the acts and omissions of the Defendant do constitute negligence and were
substantial causes and factors of the subject incident and did result in the injuries and losses
sustained by the Plaintiffs. Further, Defendant's averment lacks the specificity required by the
Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure. All of Plaintiffs' injuries and damages were caused solely
and directly as a result of the negligence, carelessness, wantonness and recklessness of the instant
Defendant.
31. Defendant's averment is a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is
required. To the extent the averment may be deemed factual, it is hereby specifically denied. By
way of amplification, there were no events that predated or postdated the motor vehicle accident.
All of Plaintiffs' injuries and damages were caused solely and directly as a result of the negligence,
carelessness, wantonness and recklessness of the instant Defendant.
360078
32. Defendant's averment is a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is
required. To the extent the averment may be deemed factual, it is hereby specifically denied. By
way of amplification, Plaintiff was not negligent in any way. All of Plaintiffs' injuries and damages
were caused solely and directly as a result of the negligence, carelessness, wantonness and
recklessness of the instant Defendant.
33. Defendant's averment is a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is
required. To the extent the averment may be deemed factual, it is hereby specifically denied. By
way of amplification, Plaintiff R. Timothy Reinford's loss of consortium claim is not barred by the
doctrines of release and accord and satisfaction.
34. Defendant's averment is a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is
required. To the extent the averment may be deemed factual, it is hereby specifically denied. By
way of amplification, Plaintiff R. Timothy Reinford's loss of consortium claim is not barred by the
doctrine of settlement.
35. It is admitted only that R. Timothy Reinford signed a release for his own injury
claim. However, he did not release his derivative consortium claim.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs respectfully request this Honorable Court to dismiss Defendant's
Answer and New Matter and enter judgment in their favor against the Defendant.

Defendant
NO. 07-3609 Civil Term
JURY TRIAL DEMANDED
PLAINTIFFS' MOTION TO SERVE FINANCIAL WEALTH
DISCOVERY UPON DEFENDANT PURSUANT TO Pa.R.C.P. 4003.7
Plaintiffs, by and through their attorneys, Angino & Rovner, P.C., respectfully move
Your Honorable Court to permit discovery of Defendant Valerie Lair's financial wealth for the
following reasons:
1. On June 18, 2007, Plaintiffs Rhonda L. and R. Timothy Reinford filed a
Complaint for injuries sustained from a motor vehicle accident that occurred on October 22,
2005, at approximately 8:39 p.m.
2. Defendant Valerie Lair operated her vehicle at a high rate of speed, rammed the
back of the Terry Camper Plaintiffs were pulling and then violently slammed into the driver's
side door of the vehicle causing serious injuries to Plaintiffs.
L
3. Defendant Valerie Lair was under the influence of alcohol when the accident
occurred.
4. Plaintiffs' Complaint includes a claim for punitive damages.
5. Punitive Damages are penal in nature and may be awarded in cases where the
defendant's actions are so outrageous as to demonstrate willful, wanton or reckless conduct.
Hutchison v. Luddy, 896 A.2d 1260 (Pa.Super. 2006). To sustain a claim for Punitive Damages,
it must be established that the Defendant had a subjective appreciation of the risk of harm and
that the Defendant acted in conscious disregard of that risk. Id. at 1266.
6. Defendant Valerie Lair's operation of a motor vehicle while under the influence
of alcohol constitutes outrageous conduct due to Defendant's reckless indifference to the rights
and safety of others.
7. Defendant Valerie Lair knew or should have known that operating a motor
vehicle while under the influence of alcohol would endanger other motorists on the roadways.
8. Defendant Valerie Lair's operation of a motor vehicle while intoxicated
constitutes a conscious disregard of that risk.
9. Pennsylvania recognizes that driving under the influence of alcohol has a "very
great potential for harm and serious injury" and "may under certain circumstances be deemed
`outrageous conduct' and `a reckless indifference to the interest of others' sufficient to allow the
imposition of punitive damages."' Focht v. Rabada, 217 Pa.Super. 35, 40, 268 A.2d 157, 160
(1970).
364222
46
10. Because the purpose of punitive damages is to punish the tortfeasor for the
outrageous conduct, the wealth of the tortfeasor is relevant in order to allow the jury to weigh the
conduct of the tortfeasor against the amount of damages which would deter such future conduct.
Kirkbride v. Lisbon Contractors, Inc., 521 Pa. 97, 555 A.2d 800 (1989).
11. The discovery of the information concerning the Defendant's wealth is expressly
permitted in Pa.R.C.P. 4003.7 by Order of the Court when there has been a valid claim for
punitive damages.
12. The instant action has not been before a Judge to date.
12. Plaintiffs are represented by Richard A. Sadlock, Esquire of Angino & Rovner,
P.C., 4503 North Front Street, Harrisburg, PA 17110; telephone number (717) 238-6791; fax
number (717) 238-5610.
13. Defendant is represented by Michael B. Scheib, Esquire, Griffith, Strickler,
Lerman, Solymos & Calkins, 110 Northern Way, York, PA 17402-3737; telephone number
(717) 757-7602; fax number (717) 757-3783.
14. Prior to filing the instant Motion, on August 9, 2007, Plaintiffs' counsel wrote to
Defendant's counsel and provided copies of the proposed Interrogatories and Request for
Production of Documents and sought counsel's agreement to answer the financial wealth
discovery.
15. To date, Defendant's counsel has not responded to Plaintiffs' counsel's August 9,
2007, letter. Therefore, it is Plaintiffs' counsel's belief that Defendant's counsel does not concur
with responding to Plaintiffs' financial wealth discovery or the filing of this Motion.
364222
WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs respectfully request Your Honorable Court to permit discovery
of Defendant's financial wealth.
Respectfully submitted,

Do you recall how much beer he had to drink while you were
home?
A I have no idea. I have no idea.
Q Was there anyone else at your home that evening?
A No.
Q Obviously since you were involved in the accident
there came a time period where you left your home that
evening, is that correct?
A Yes.
Q What was your reason for leaving your home?
A Really stupid. They kept flashing this Burger
King commercial. And it wasn't that far, I felt fine, and
I went. And I went into the Burger King to get the
hamburgers. They said they did not have them. Then I
pulled out on the road, was going home, and then that's....
Q What type of hamburger were you going for?
A It's a kind -- this is so stupid. God. It's
called a big angus burger, and it was a really good
hamburger.
Q They were sold out, they didn't have them?
A She said they weren't carrying them.
Q How far is the Burger King from your home in New
Cumberland?
A Less than a mile. Maybe a mile. Less than a
mile.

Q And at that point -- what time was it when you
left your home?
A I wasn't paying attention. I don't know. A
little bit after eight. 8:15, 20. I don't know.
Q And had you been consuming wine that entire four
hours since you had been home?
A Well, off and on, yes. I was sitting watching
football and --
Q Prior to October 22, 2005, how often did you
consume wine?
A A couple times a week.
Q When you did drink, how much would you drink
generally?
A A couple, two, three glasses I guess.
Q Two or three glasses two or three times per week?
A When I was at home, yes.
Q Prior to October 22 of 2005, had you ever
yourself considered yourself intoxicated?
A Probably in college.
Q Any time more recent than that?
A Not that I can think of, no.
Q Those times back in college when you felt
yourself intoxicated, how would you describe how you were
teeling at that time'?
A Well, you just had too much beer at a party, you

just felt woozy and --
Q on Octoher 22; 2005, before you left your home to
go to Burger King after consuming wine, were you slurring
your speech at all?
A No. Go ahead.
Q Were you having any difficulty standing or
walking?
A No, sir.
Q Although you don't know or don't recall how much
wine that you consumed?
A I do not.
Q What was your blood-alcohol reading following the
accident?
A It's in the police report. Whatever it was that
they said. I don't recall that. It's there somewhere.
Q The police report indicates your blood-alcohol
concentration was point 222. Does that refresh your
recollection?
A That's what they said it was, yes.
Q Did you in any way contest that at any time?
A I didn't think that you really had a right to do
it.
Q Are you aware that's approximately three times
the level for intoxication?
MR. COOK: I will object to the form of the

question simply because I think -- I am trying to remember
when they amended the statute.
BY MR. SADLOCK:
Q well, if in fact the statute was amended at that
time, we're saying point 08 was the level. That would have
been approximately three times, correct?
A From what you are saying, yes.
Q If it was point 10, more than two times the
limit, is that correct?
A I guess.
Q Before leaving your home on that evening, did you
consider whether or not you should go given that you were
drinking?
A I did. I did not feel that there was anything
wrong.
Q You left your home alone?
A Uh-huh.
Q Is that yes?
A Yes.
Q Did Mr. Cliber make any effort to stop you from
going because of your consuming alcohol?
A No.
Q But again, prior to leaving your home on that
evening, you were aware of the effect of aicoiivl anu tiie
ability to safely operate a vehicle?

A Yes, if I would have felt strange -- I don't
drink and drive. If I am allowed to elaborate, I think if
I would not have felt fine, I never would have gone for the
hamburger or anything else.
Q Do you -- do you ever drink out at bars or
restaurants?
A Back in the day, no more.
Q When you say back in the day, when was the day?
A Twenties, twenties, early.
Q When your age was in the twenties?
A Yes.
Q Since then you do not go out to bars, restaurants
or --
A We do -- if we -- we'll have a drink, but we
don't really go out anywhere any more.
Q Have any of your job changes in any way been
associated with consumption of alcohol?
A No, sir.
Q What is your current height and weight?
A Five-four, and I weigh too much. I don't have to
tell you how much I weigh, do I?
Q Yes, you do.
A 165 maybe.
O Any change in that from October 2005 to the
present? Were you the same then as you are now?

Q How much would you weiyii -- or did you weigh , if
you recall, on October 2005?
A Twenty, maybe thirty pounds less.
Q Tell me what you remember about the automobile
accident of October 22, 2205.
A I just remember pulling out of Burger King, and I
pulled right on the street. And the next thing I saw was
the vehicle. And I swerved to not hit it and then I hit
it, and that's all.
Q What street is the Burger King located on?
A Bridge Street in New Cumberland.
Q What street were you turning on to?
A I was turning out of Burger King on to Bridge
Street.
Q Okay. The police accident report indicates the
accident happened at the intersection of Walton Street and
South Third Street.
A Well, it's called Bridge Street. I don't know
why they call it South Third. It's -- in Lemoyne would be
Third Street, and New Cumberland, it's Bridge.
Q All right. Coming out of the Burger King parking
lot, would you have made a left turn or right turn?
A RighL Luin.

pulled on the road.

the Reinfords' vehicle?
A I did not see -- I did not see the vehicle.
Q How far did you travel before the accident
happened?
A It was about a block.
Q Can you give me an estimate in terms of feet for
that block or miles?
A I have no idea. It was about maybe three or four
hours. I --
Q In those three or four hours, did you see the
Reinford vehicle?
A At the very last moment, I had. I don't recall
lights. I don't recall seeing anything.
Q Mr. Reinford was driving a truck pulling a
camper, is that correct?
A That's what I understand, yes.
Q And is it your testimony that you traveled three
houses or a city block and never saw their vehicle until
just prior to impact?
A Yes.

A No.
Q Anything other than the -- possibly the effect of
alcohol effecting your ability to see or perceive their
vehicle?
A It was dark and it was rainy. That's -- until
the vehicle was there.
Q Did you have your headlights on when you left the
Burger King?
A Oh, yes.
Q Low beam or high beam?
A Regular, no, just regular lights.

would you describe the rain?

Q With your windshield wipers going?
A I don't think so. I don't think so.
Q How fast were you traveling immediately prior to
the accident?
A Well, not that fast. Twenty, I don't know,
twenty-five, I don't know. I don't normally drive very
fast anyway.
Q Did you have any food or beverages in the car?
A I don't recall, no, because I didn't have my
burgers, no, the money was laying on the --

leaving your home to go to Burger King? Had you just
finished a drink?

box. Was the box -- how full was the box when you started?

do things that we would have done and take any kind of
chances any more.
Q I believe in some ads it talks about drinking and
driving, it talks about impairment begins with the first
drink. Have you heard that before yourself?
A Yes.
Q Did you hear that before October 22, 2005?
A I am sure I have. I am sure I have.
Q Did you give that any consideration before going
out on October 22, 2005?
A I didn't really think about it because I did not
feel intoxicated.
Q Even though you weren't aware of how many glasses
of wine that you actually consumed?
A No.
Q Or what your blood-alcohol level was before
leaving the house?
A Correct.
I
Q Describe the accident for me, please. What

it, or was it stationary?
A I seemed to me to be I guess stationary. I mean,
like I said, it just -- it all went into a blur.
Q Did you strike the actual vehicle that
Mr. Reinford was operating or the trailer?
A The trailer.
Q You hit the trailer first. Did you ever hit the
vehicle that Mr. Reinford was driving?
A When I bounced, it -- I guess when I turned, it
hit up further a little bit.
Q What happened then after the accident?
A I sat in my car. The police officer came, and he
said were you drinking and I said yes, I was. And he took
me out of the car, and he wanted me to do the walk thing.
And I said to him that I have a bad back and bad knees,
that it wasn't going to really make a difference. And so
then -- I don't remember in between, then he -- they
handcuffed me and took me in the back of the car and took
me to Carlisle.

Reinford at the accident scene?
A No.
Q Have you had any contact with them since that
date to the present?
A Not to my knowledge, I have not.
Q You were charged with driving under the
influence?
A Yes, sir.
Q You pled guilty to that?
A Yes, sir.
MR. COOK: Well, I will object to the form. I
don't think that actually accurately reflects what
occurred. There was an A.R.D. placement, which would not
be the functional equivalent of a guilty plea.

can't remember the name of it.
Q For how long did that program last?

yourself referred or by anyone else referred to attend an

WITNESSES 1 As part of this process, and I think your counsel
2 NAME EXAM.NATLON 2 had indicated before, when you answer a question, I am
3 RHONDA L. REINPORD 3 going to assume that you heard the question and you
4 BY: MR. COOK 3 4 understood the question. Okay? Fair enough?
5 BY: MR. SADLOCK 72 5 A Right. Yes.
6 6 Q Again, one of the more important aspects of this
7 is, one, we not talk over each other because it certainly
e 8 makes it easier for the stenographer to take everything
9 9 down. But secondly, verbal answers. It's certainly easier
10 10 to record yes or no than trying to indicate a nod of the
11 11 head. So if from time to time that does happen, I will try
12 12 and correct you or your counsel may try to correct you.
13 13 Okay?
14 14 A Okay.
15 15 Q Again, the same rules. This may take -- it will
16 16 take a little bit longer than Miss Cliber's deposition, but
I, 17 if at any time you feel the need to stand up, get up, take
18 18 a break for any reason whatsoever, please let me know and
I9 19 we can do that; okay?
20 20 A Thank you.
21 21 Q Sure.
22 22 Now, your full name?
23 23 A Rhonda Lee Reinford.
24 24 Q How do you spell the middle name?
25 25 A L-e-e.

22 it, but if at any point you can't hear me, just let me
23 know. If you don't understand the question, let me know, 1
24 will be more than happy to rephrase or ask it a different
25 way.

5 be maybe in high school or drivers ed class or maybe
6 through AAA or --
7 A My father would take me out driving when I had my
8 pen-nit.
9 Q He wasn't like an instructor of any kind, just
10 dad knew how to drive, he had a license and he taught you;
11 fair enough?
12 A Yes.
13 Q After you got your license, do you remember
14 taking any other -- or any classes geared toward safe
15 driving or drivers ed or anything like that?
16 A No.
17 Q Has your license ever been suspended?
18 A No.
19 Q All right. Graduated from high school?
20 A Yes.
21 Q Which high school, which year?
22 A Cedar Cliff, 1983.
23 Q After Cedar Cliff, did you have any other
24 education or training?
25 A HACC.
Page 7
1 Q When did you attend HACC?
2 A 1998 I believe.
3 Q Any degrees, certificates?
4 A CNA certificate.
5 Q That was awarded in 1997?
6 A '98 or '99.
7 Q I am assuming that was a specialized program that
8 you attended?
9 A Yes.
10 Q And you successfully completed that, I am
11 assuming, in order to get the certificate?
12 A Yes.
13 Q Any other -- HACC was the Harrisburg campus?
14 A No. I took the course at Masonic Homes in
15 Elizabethtown.
16 Q What did you have to do in order -- or as part of
17 this program? What were the requirements?
18 A I don't understand --
19 Q Okay.
20 A -- what you are asking me.
21 Q Were there specialized classes that you had to
22 take as part of the CNA program at HACC?
23 A It was for the CNA course. And the teacher from
24 HACC would come to Masonic Home and teach the course to
25 several students.
Page 6 - Page 9
Page 8
1 Q Okay. A different way I guess. Was it broken
2 down into say like a biology component or any
3 individualized aspects to it, or was it just one class that
4 this is what we learned during this time period?
5 A It's hard for me to recall back then. It's been
6 awhile. No, we just learned how to clean people up, you
7 know, hygiene.
8 Q Okay. Was most of it hands-on training, or was
9 there a classroom component?
10 A Mostly out of a book, some of it was hands on.
1 I Q Other than the program at HACC, did you have any
12 other education or classes that you attended?
13 A No.
14 Q Okay. All right. Have you ever been convicted
15 of a crime?
16 A No.
17 Q Charged with a crime?
18 A No.
19 Q I probably should have mentioned before some of
20 these questions certainly aren't meant to embarrass or to
21 pry, but as part of this process, we just need to ask;
22 okay? So --
23 A Okay.
24 Q Ever in the military?
25 A No.
Page 9
1 Q Okay. Now, about how long have you been married?
2 A Since November 1, 1997.
3 Q First marriage?
4 A No, sir.
5 Q Okay. Which marriage would it be?
6 A Second.
7 Q And prior husband?
8 A Brian Englehart. E-n-g-l-e-h-a-r-t.
9 Q Other than Miranda, any other children?
10 A No.
11 Q All right. Taking you back to before October of
12 2005, did you have any interests or hobbies, leisure
13 activities?
14 A Oh, my gosh. Skiing, tennis, sledding with my
15 daugh ter, art, gardening, a lot of activities.
16 Q Okay. Let's take those one at a time. Skiing,
17 how often would you do that?
18 A Not very often.

24 Q A couple years?
25 A Before I met him.

1 Q Okay. How about tennis?
2 A Tennis we would play at the beach when we would
3 go on vacation.
4 Q Okay. Would that be once a year?
5 A Once a year, but -- well, we just got tennis
6 racquets after -- was it before or after the accident, and
7 I couldn't play.
8 MR. REINFORD: It was before the accident.
9 THE WITNESS: Okay. But I couldn't use my tennis
10 racquet. We got tennis racquets before the accident, I
11 couldn't recall, and I couldn't play any more after the
12 accident.
13 BY MR. COOK:
14 Q Okay. Was the time that you were at the beach
15 the only time that you really played tennis?
16 A Pretty much.
17 Q Okay. Now, when you went to the beach, was that
18 -- which beach are we talking about?
19 A Bethany.
20 Q And was this a yearly thing that you went?
21 A Yes.
22 Q Okay. Any other family or friends that were down
23 there or --
24 A Yes.
25 Q Okay. You stayed at somebody elses house that
Page 11
I had a house down there?
2 A Yes.
3 Q Friends, family?
4 A Yes.
5 Q Okay.
6 A Both.
7 Q Okay. Sledding?
8 A With my daughter. Every winter all of the time
9 whenever it snowed.
10 Q Well, let me back up for a second. You said
11 since the accident you don't play tennis any more?
12 A No.
13 Q Why is that?
14 A Because I can't.
15 Q Specifically what limits you from playing tennis?
16 A My body.
17 Q Okay.
18 A I hurt.
19 Q Feet, your ankles, your knees?
20 A My lower back, my thoracic area, my cervical
21 area. My hands go numb, my arms go numb when I grab
22 things . My hands tingle and burn. Walking long periods
23 hurts. Sitting long period hurts. Standing long periods
24 hurts.
25 Q We'll get to some of that in a little bit. Just
Page 12
1 focus on the tennis part.
2 Lower back, thoracic cervical, hands and arms go
3 numb?
4 A Yes.
5 Q Is there anything else just related to tennis
6 that prevents you from playing tennis?
7 A I can't jump around, my reaction times.
8 Q Then sledding, what is it since the accident that
9 causes difficulty in sledding?
10 A Going down the hill. If we would wreck, that
1 I would make it worse. Climbing up the hill, I couldn't do
12 it. Well, yes, I have pain.
13 Q When you are talking about claiming up the hill,
14 what physically makes that difficult for you?
15 A I have nothing to hold on to.
16 Q Okay. Why is that necessary?
17 A Because it's hard for me to climb up things. My
18 lower back hurts very bad. My sciatic nerves hurt when I
19 take steps so I have to hold on to things in order to get
20 up steps. I would have to hold on to somebody in order to
21 get up a hill.
22 Q Okay. Is there any difficulty with your
23 involvement in art since the accident?
24 A Sitting long periods.
25 Q What kind of art would you be involved in?
Page 13
1 A I paint and draw.
2 Q Then you mentioned gardening?
3 A Yes.
4 Q What physical problems do you have when you are
5 trying to garden?
6 Well, let me ask it a different way. What type
7 of gardening would you do?
8 A Pulling weeds.
9 Q Anything besides pulling weeds?
10 A No.
11 Q And so when you are pulling weeds, what physical
12 problems do you have that make that difficult for you now
13 as opposed to before?
14 A I have pain bending over.
15 Q Okay. Are there any other activities that you
16 were involved in before the accident that since the
17 accident are difficult or that you can't be involved in at
18 all?
19 A Yes.
20 Q What are those?
21 A Grocery shopping.
22 Q Okay. Anything else?
23 A I am too nervous right now, I can't answer.
24 Q Do you need to take a break?
25 A Yes.

6 Q Any time that you need to break, just let us
7 know, we will be more than happy to accommodate you.
8 A Thank you.
9 Q We left off with other activities, and you
10 mentioned grocery shopping. Is there any other activities
11 since the accident that are difficult for you or that you
12 can't be involved in?
13 A Housework.
14 Q Okay. Okay. Anything else?
15 A Laundry. That's the same thing. Bike riding.
16 Q Okay.
17 A I would teach the children in the neighborhood
18 and my daughter gymnastics, show them how to do it. I
19 can't do that any more, it's too much pain. It's painful
20 to do everything.
21 Q Let's cover grocery shopping first. What is it
22 that makes it difficult for you to go grocery shopping?
23 A Sometimes lifting heavy bags. If they're too
24 heavy, I will have someone else do it for me. I go to the
25 customer service and ask for them to load my truck.
Page 15
1 Q Now, was this something that you were responsible
2 for or did prior to the accident?
3 A Yes.
4 Q Okay.
5 A I don't shop much any more. Timothy normally
6 does it now.
7 Q All right. Now, work and laundry. What
8 difficulties do you have there?
9 A With everything, I have pain.
10 Q When you talk about pain, specifically what --
1 I A Running the vacuum. It's painful to do that.
12 Q What parts of your body are in pain?
13 A My lower back and my thoracic area.
14 Q Okay. The laundry, how is that?
15 A I can't lift the heavy baskets, Timothy does that
16 now.
17 Q Okay. So if he lifts the baskets, are you
18 otherwise able to do laundry?
19 A I can fold sometimes and not for very long.
20 Q You also mentioned bike riding. Prior to the
21 accident, about how often did you do that?
22 A Probably once a week.
23 Q Where would you typically ride?
24 A Around the neighborhood.
25 Q Paved streets?
2 Q And about how long would you ride?
3 A I don't recall. I never timed myself.
4 Q Okay. Did you go out for fifteen minutes, a half
5 hour, hour, just roughly?
6 A Probably two, three miles, maybe more.
7 Q Okay.
Page 16
8 A Let's see. I could ride my bike from my street
9 on Walton Street all of the way down through New Cumberland
10 to the Giant, is that Old York, Fairview?
I 1 MR. REINFORD: Yes.
12 THE wrrNEss: Down in New Cumberland, I could
13 ride my bicycle down and back. So that's probably more
14 than two miles, two or three miles.
15 BY MR. COOK:
16 Q Okay. Again, what makes it difficult now?
17 A The pain in my lower back and holding onto the
18 handle bars. My hands burn and fall asleep and I get pain
19 in my arms. They go numb.
20 Q Okay. All right. Now, at the time of the
21 accident, you were employed with Pinnacle?
22 A Yes, sir.
23 Q Is that correct?
24 How long had you been employed with Pinnacle?
25 A Since August of 2000.
Page 17
1 Q Were you employed with anyone else during that
2 time period?
3 A No.
4 Q Was there any temp service or temp agency,
5 placement agency?
6 A I don't understand what you mean.
7 Q Okay. All right. I will show you -- this is a
8 copy of a W-2.
9 A Okay.
10 Q From 2005. Elite Staffing.
11 A Explain to me what you mean by the question.
12 Yes, I left Pinnacle and I went to Elite Staffing to take
13 care of a lady, and then I went back.
14 I didn't understand what you meant by -- about
15 the question.
16 Q That's part of what I was asking you is you were

2 A No, I really don't.
3 Q Do you recall why? That was -- that was the last

5 MR. SADLOCK: Yes.
6 BY MR. COOK:
7 Q Okay. And you are indicating that you went to
8 Elite Staffing at some point in time to take care of -- was
9 it one patient or more than one patient?
10 A At first, it was more than one patient.
11 Q All right. Let me back up for a second.
12 A Okay.

14 1998 or 1999?
15 A Yes.
16 Q Where did you first work after that?
17 A Masonic Homes in Elizabethtown.
18 Q That's what, in 1999?
19 A Yes, sir.
20 Q And do you recall what you started at wage-wise
21 there?
22 A I think it was seven something an hour
23 Q Okay.
24 A During the course that we had to take.
25 Q Okay. Was that part of the class?
Page 19
1 A Was what part of the class?
2 Q When you were working at Masonic Homes and you
3 were paid seven dollars an hour? Do you understand the
4 question?
5 A No.
6 Q Okay. Let me back up.
7 MR. REINFORD: May I interject?
8 BY MR. COOK:
9 Q I will clarify and see if I got it.
10 You indicated earlier that you took the classes
11 at HACC for the CNA?
12 A Yes.
13 Q That was at the Masonic Homes in Elizabethtown,
14 is that right?
15 A Yes. Yes.
16 Q Okay. Then you indicated that you are employed
17 at Masonic Homes in Elizabethtown?
18 A Yes.
19 Q All right. I guess what I am asking is --
20 A Did they pay us while we were taking the course,
21 is that what you wondered?
22 Q Sure. Let's ask it that way first.
23 A Yes.
24 Q Okay. Is that what --when you were paid seven
25 dollars an hour?
Page 20
1 A Yes.
2 Q Kind of like an internship I guess?
3 A I don't know if you would call it that. I
4 don't --
5 Q After you completed the class, did you continue
6 to work at Masonic Homes?
7 A Yes.
8 Q Okay. All right. Was that at the same rate of
9 pay?
10 A No, it went higher.
11 Q Okay. Do you recall what it was?
12 A I think 9.20 an hour.
13 Q Do you recall approximately how long that you
14 were there at Masonic Homes?
15 A About a year.
16 Q Okay.
17 A And a half.
18 Q All right. Do you recall why you left?
19 A I wanted to make better money.
20 Q Okay. Did you find a position where you made
21 more money?
22 A Yes.
23 Q Where was that?
24 A Pinnacle Health Nursing and Support Services.
25 Q I am sorry, Pinnacle and --
Page 21
1 A Pinnacle Health Nursing and Supportive Services.
2 Q When you were there, what were your job
3 responsibilities?
4 A When I was where?
5 Q I am sorry, Pinnacle.
6 A Pinnacle. Taking care of patients, hygiene,
7 EKGs, vital signs, hemoccult, gastroccult tests, pushing,
8 pulling, lifting, standing, carrying heavy laundry bags.
9 Q All right. When you say pushing and pulling,
10 what did you have to push or pull?
11 A We had to push an EKG machine. We had to push
12 people in wheel chairs. We had to pull laundry bags.
13 Q Okay. You wouldn't happen to have any idea how
14 much an EKG machine weighed, would you?
15 A No.
16 Q Okay. All right. You also mentioned lifting.
17 What type of things would you have to lift?
18 A I don't recall. Lifting laundry bags.
19 Q During the time that you were at Pinnacle, was
20 there an average number of hours per week that you worked?

23 A Because of being home with my daughter and my
24 husband to go to work. I don't -- I don't really recall.
25 Q Okay. Did you have one particular location that

1 you were at all of the time, or were there different
2 locations at Pinnacle that you would go to during these
3 time periods?
4 A Yes.
5 Q Okay. Yes, you went to different locations, or
6 yes --
7 A Yes, I went to different locations.
8 Q All right. Which different locations would you
9 go to?
10 A Osteopathic, Harrisburg Hospital, and Polyclinic.
11 Now this was all back when I first started with Pinnacle.
12 Q Okay. And why would you go from location to
13 location?
14 A Where ever help is needed, you would go.
15 Q Okay.
16 A They would direct you where to go.
17 Q Did you report to say one particular place, they
18 would direct you that day, or were there assignments that
19 would --
20 A I would report to them that morning.
21 Q And you would go in that morning, they would say,
22 okay, you go to Harrisburg Hospital, or you would go to
23 Polyclinic or --
24 A Now, I worked for the float pool. And when you
25 work for the float pool at Pinnacle at Harrisburg Hospital,
Page 23
1 you go up to the floor, they tell you where to go in that
2 hospital.
3 Q Okay.
4 A If it was changed, they would call me at like
5 five o'clock in the morning and tell me where to go. If it
6 was changed, if they had enough staffing, they would say
7 hey, Ronnie, go to Osteopathic, you are needed there. So
8 that's what I would do.
9 Q Okay. So if I understand it correctly, unless
10 they call you at home, you went to Harrisburg Hospital
11 where they would then assign you somewhere at Harrisburg
12 Hospital?
13 A Yes.
14 Q Okay. If they wanted you to go to some other
15 location, they would call you at home, say don't come to
16 the hospital this morning?
17 A Yes.
18 Q Okay. Were there ever times when they would call
19 you and say we don't need anybody today?
20 A That was rare, very rare.
21 Q I am sorry, did you say there was a typical
22 number of hours a week that you worked?
23 A What did I work, about thirty hours a week. I
24 don't recall.
25 1 know that I was working full time for awhile.
Page 22 - Page 25
Multi-Page ` A
Page 24
1 I don't recall. Thirty to forty hours. I really don't
2 remember back in 2000 when I first started.
3 Q All right. What about as it got closer to 2003,
4 2004, 2005, always thirty hours then?
5 A Pretty much, yes.
6 Q Okay.
7 A What time is it?
8 Q About twenty of eleven.
9 A I have to take my medicine soon.
10 Q Do you want to take a break now?
11 A No, I have to take my medicine soon.
12 Q Okay. Was there ever a point in time that you
13 applied for unemployment compensation?
14 A Yes.
15 Q Okay.
16 A I don't remember when it was exactly, but I know
17 I did.
18 Q Okay. Do you recall a point in time maybe about
19 three weeks before the accident applying for unemployment
20 compensation?
21 A Yes.
22 Q Do you recall why that was?
23 A Census was low in the hospital.
24 Q What does that mean?
25 A It means that there is not a lot of patients in
Page 25
1 the hospital at that time.
2 Q So because there aren't a lot of patients in the
3 hospital, they don't need as many employees. You were one
4 of the people that were I guess not being called in, is
5 that fair to say?
6 A Say that -- repeat that.
7 Q Okay. Because the number of patients was low?
8 A Right.
9 Q They didn't need as many staff at the hospital?
10 A Right.
11 Q Was it a temporary layoff or was it?
12 A Yes.
13 Q Okay. And did you ever go back?
14 A Yes.
15 Q Okay. Do you recall about when you went back?
16 A No.
17 Q When you did go back after the accident, what
18 were your duties at that point in time?
19 A I had to push a wheelchair. I just worked in
20 transport then after the accident.
21 Q Okay. Fair to say that transport would mean that
22 you would wheel a patient from one area of the hospital to
23 the other or from their room to maybe a testing area or
24 something along those lines?
25 A Yes.

I Q Okay. Did you have any other job
2 responsibilities at that time after the accident?
3 A Just transporting patients.
4 Q Okay. How long did you stay in that position?
5 A I don't recall.
6 Q Do you recall -- well, did that end at some
7 point?
8 A Yes, because I was in too much pain to do it any
9 more.
10 Q Did you receive any indication from any doctor as
11 to any restrictions for work after the accident?
12 A Yes. Yes.
13 Q Was your employer made aware of those
14 restric tions?
15 A Yes.
16 Q Did they make any effort to accommodate those
17 restric tions or place you in some type of position that
18 would fit within those restrictions?
19 A I don't recall. I don't.
20 Q Do you recall if you asked them to put you in a
21 position that would be in accordance with the restrictions?
22 A I believe I asked. I don't recall.
23 Q Okay.
24 A I was in just too much pain to do anything.
25 Q Was there ever a point in time that you were
Page 27
1 injured while at work?
2 A As in?
3 Q Suffered any type of pain or anything else that
4 caused you to be of concern?
5 A Yes.
6 Q Okay. And do you recall approximately how many
7 times?
8 A Three times.
9 Q Okay. What were those three times?
10 A Once at Masonic Homes I had a lower back strain.
11 Q Okay. Now, when that happened, do you recall
12 what you were doing when that occurred?
13 A Yes. I was pushing -- do you want to know?
14 Q Yes.
15 A Okay. I was pushing a 300, 400 pound woman on a
16 stand-up lift.
17 Q I am going to ask. What is a stand-up lift?
18 A You have to put a strap around her back. She's
19 sitting in a wheelchair. You bring the machine up to her.
20 The platform of the machine rolls out. You put a strap
21 around her back and hook it to the machine. Then you push
22 levers and stuff, and it pulls her up slowly.
23 Q Okay. So it moves her from a sitting position?
24 A To standing position, yes.
25 Q Okay. Then once she's in a standing, he or she
Page 28
I is in a standing position, what happens from there?
2 A Then I would have to push the machine over to the
3 toilet or the bed or where ever she had to go.
4 Q Okay. How in that process did you strain your
5 back or where in the process I guess?
6 A I was transporting her from the wheelchair on the
7 stand-up lift to the toilet.
8 Q Okay. So were you pushing her at the time or --
9 I am trying to --
10 A Yes, I was trying to transport her from the
11 wheelchair to the toilet. The wheelchair was here. The
12 toilet was right beside it.
13 Q Okay. Do you recall about what year that was or
14 where that was?
15 A 1999 at Masonic.
16 Q Was it earlier in the time period that you were
17 at Masonic or later?
18 A I don't recall.
19 Q Okay. Did you miss any work as a result of that
20 incident?
21 A No.
22 Q Okay. Did you seek any medical treatment as a
23 result of the incident?
24 A In-house at Masonic.
25 Q Is that just one visit or was it --
Page 291
1 A No, several.
2 Q Does it require any physical therapy or any --
3 A No.
4 Q What was the second incident -- just before we
5 get on to the second incident, was there any workers'
6 compensation claim ever filed?
7 A No, no, I made a full recovery, went right back
8 to work.
9 Q Okay.
10 A I worked light duty for them.
I1 Q Okay.
12 A So I was never off of work actually.
13 Q Okay. So while you are there, you went to get
14 in-house treatment, presumably one of the doctors told you

5 approaching Walton Street. And Tim put his turn signal on.
6 And we were waiting for a car to come. There was an
7 on-coming car coming, and we were waiting for that car to
8 come. And I remember our truck jerking, and I twisted
9 toward him. And I said I think someone hit us. And as
10 soon as he said I think you are right, the only thing I
11 heard was squealing of tires and a crashing into the side
12 of our truck.
13 Q What happened, if anything, as a result of the
14 vehicle striking the side of the truck?
15 A What do you mean what happened?
16 Q Okay. Did anything happen to you?
17 A My body flew. I was twisted toward Timothy. He

19 Q Okay.
20 A And my whole body flew. I wasn't holding onto
21 anything, and my glasses flew off. I don't recall, you
22 know, exactly what happened. I just remember my body --
23 Q Just so I understand correctly, you are sitting
24 in the passenger seat?
25 A Yes.
Page 33
1 Q All right. You heard something I guess off to
2 your left or behind you to the left?
3 A Uh-huh.
4 Q Or just behind you?
5 A I heard it off to our left side.
6 Q Okay. And then you turned twisting towards him',
7 A I twisted toward him to talk to him.
8 Q Okay.
9 A Because I felt the impact on the back of the
to camper.
I 1 Q Okay. You were wearing a seat belt at that
12 point?
13 A Yes, sir.

19 A I was still twisted toward him.
20 Q Okay. Did you see anything in the side of your
21 mirror?
22 A When?
23 Q Prior to the I guess what we will call the second
24 impact?
25 A No. I didn't even think to look at a mirror.

2 A I was looking at my husband.
3 Q Regarding the trailer itself, does it have its
4 own set of brake lights and --
5 A I am not the person to ask for that.
6 Q Okay.
7 A You would have to ask my husband.
8 Q Okay. Did you see the other vehicle before
9 impact?
10 A No, because I was looking at him.
11 Q Well, either impact, the first time that you
12 heard something hit?
13 A It was dark outside.
14 Q The back?
15 A And misty, so if I -- I didn't even think to look
16 at the outside left side if that's what you are referring
17 to. I didn't even think to look out the window, I just
18 thought someone bumped the back of our camper and that we
19 should find out what happened.
20 Q Okay.
21 A So--
22 Q After the accident, did you get out of the car?
23 A Yes, I did.
24 Q Okay. And what happened once you got out?
25 A I walked around to Valerie to see if she was
Page 35
1 okay.
2 Q Okay. And what happened once you got back there?
3 A She was just sitting in her car mumbling
4 something. I don't know what it was. I think it was oh,
5 my God. I tried several times to ask her if she was okay.
6 Q Okay.
7 A And I just pushed her head back to see if she was
8 okay. I lifted up her hair actually just to see maybe if
9 she was bleeding or anything.
10 Q Was she slumped forward in any manner?
11 A Yes.
12 Q Was it just that her head was down, or was her
13 body more forward, or how would you describe that?
14 A No, she just looked like she was upset about what
15 happened or being in an accident. She was just upset I
16 believe.
17 Q All right.
18 A But I could hardly understand what she was
19 saying.
20 Q Okay. Now, at some point in time, the police
21 arrived, is that correct?
22 A Yes.
23 Q Were you still there when they arrived?
24 A I believe so, yes.
25 Q Do you know who called the police?
Page 36
1 A A neighbor on the comer of Third and Walnut --
2 Walton, pardon me.
3 Q Did you make any statements to the police
4 officer?
5 A I don't remember.

9 A Yes.
10 Q Who took that?
11 A Timothy.
12 Q Is there a video camera in the vehicle to the
13 best that you recall?
14 A Yes.
15 Q Now, did you go to the hospital that night?
16 A No.
17 Q All right. Did you tell the -- as best as you
18 recall telling the officer that you were feeling any pain
19 or any injuries?
20 A I don't recall, I don't.
21 Q To the best that you recall, did any part of your
22 body strike any part of the inside of the passenger
23 compartment of the vehicle?
24 A I cannot remember, honestly.
25 Q When is the first time that you recall feeling
Page 37
1 any pain or discomfort as a result of this accident?
2 A I think it was a day or two after.
3 Q Okay.
4 A But I thought it was a normal thing just being in
5 an accident, you feel kind of roughed up a little bit, but
6 that's all I --
7 Q Was this the first motor vehicle accident that
8 you were involved in? When I say involved in, I don't
9 mean just that you were a passenger in a vehicle that may
10 have been hit or driver in a vehicle that may have been
11 hit, you may have been a driver that was -- and/or
12 passenger that was -- that hit another vehicle, any of
13 those?
14 A I know that I was in an accident, but I can't
15 remember when it was, but I wasn't hurt at all.
16 Q Do you remember ballpark about when that was?
17 A No, I don't, no.
18 Q More or less than ten years before this?
19 A I think less than ten years, I think.
20 Q More or less than five?
21 A I don't know.
22 Q Okay. Do you remember what the circumstances of
23 the accident were?
24 A No.
25 Q Or if you were a driver or passenger?

1 BY MR. COOK:

4 that's okay.
5 A Okay.
6 Q It's not --
7 A I am sorry.
8 Q It's not a test.

21 I am not taking it presently today because I ran out, but I
22 take -- pick it up today.
23 I normally take Oxycodone as well, but I have to
24 pick it up today, and a muscle relaxer that I have to pick
25 up today as well.
Page 44
1 Q These medications, are they prescribed by --
2 A Doctor -- now one of them, the Hydrocodone was
3 prescribed by Dr. Bush at first.
4 Q Okay.
5 A And then after seeing him, he said well, instead
6 of trying the drugs because I said I didn't want to take
7 the medication, he told me to go to Dr. Momen or Dr. Braun.
8 Q Okay. What practice are they with?
9 A Susquehanna Pain Management I believe.
10 1 have a headache.

18 Braun told me to go see a specialist, Dr. Stuart Hartman.
19 There he re-prescribed the hydrocodone. And it wasn't
20 working for me, so then he prescribed the Oxycodone as well
21 with the muscle relaxer because I get spasms.
22 Q Was there ever a point in time that you were off
23 the hydrocodone?
24 You said prescribed, that's why I asked?
25 A Yes.
Page 45
1 Q Did he just renew the prescription, or was there
2 a time that you stopped taking it?
3 A I don't remember not taking it.

15 A I asked my doctor about a lower back brace. He
16 said yes, go ahead and use it when you feel necessary.

14 Q At Poly?
15 A Polyclinic, yes.
16 Q Is there -- has any doctor ever told you that
17 it's not expected that you are going to recover from some
18 of these injuries?
19 A Dr. Hartman says chronic pain only gets worse
20 with time, so I never really asked as of yet because I just
21 don't feel like I should.
22 Q Has any doctor ever told you that the pain would
23 diminish or go away over time?
24 A No.
25 Q Do you recall if Dr. Hartman said anything else

10 is an indication in there that as a result of this, you had
I I suffered embarrassment. Do you recall that?
12 A Uh-huh.
13 Q Okay. Could you explain to me how this would
14 result in embarrassment?
15 A Wait.
16 Certain times when I would go pick up my
17 medication at Rite Aid, they would say stuff out loud in
18 front of other people while I was there. And having
19 trouble with the doctor and trying to have him call in the
20 medication. And I didn't know how things worked because I
21 have never been sick or on medication before. We were
22 having trouble trying to converse with the doctor and Rite
23 Aid, and they just treated me so --
24 Q Were these payment-type issues or just what other
25 -- I am trying to figure out, the people -- type of things
Page 52
1 that the people at Rite Aid would say.
2 A They would say well, don't you know that you have
3 to have a prescription for this, or I said no, I never -- I
4 never came in here for medication, I don't know what it is
5 like.
6 And also just trying -- like when you are going
7 to try and cross the parking lot to get into a Wal-Mart
8 say, and people expect you to walk fast and you can't.
9 It's just a lot of incidents.
10 Q Okay. Well, besides the walking, can you think
11 of -- and the Rite Aid, can you think of anything else?
12 A Just being out, people staring at me because I
13 walk slow. Sometimes I use a cane.
14 Q Anything else?
15 A There could be more, but right now, I don't
16 recall.
17 Q Has there been any emotional distress as a result
18 of this incident?
19 A Yes.
20 Q Could you explain to me what emotional stress
21 that you have or what set it off, or -- if you need to take
22 a minute, we can take a minute, that's fine.

5 BY MR. COOK:
6 Q I don't remember the question exactly, but I
7 think it was somewhere along the lines of what types of
8 things cause you to have emotional distress that are
9 related to this accident.
10 A Constant pain.
11 Q Okay.
12 A That's a big factor. Me not being in a very good
13 mood too often because I am in pain so much all of the time
14 causes me to be mean to my husband, and that's put a big
15 strain on our marriage.
16 Q Okay.
17 A Is it okay to say what I said earlier?
18 MR. SADLOCK: You are answering the question,
19 whatever --
20 MR. REINFORD: Maybe not in such detail, but --
21 THE WITNESS: I don't care.
22 My relations with my husband since this accident,
23 I can't have an orgasm. It's just not the same.
24 BY MR. COOK:
25 Q Yes. Do you still have intimacy or relations?

1 A Very rare.
2 Q Has that changed since before the accident?
3 A I don't understand what you are asking me.
4 Q Okay. Nobody likes to ask these questions --
5 A !i's okay, go ahead, be blatantly honest.
6 Q The frequency in which you had intimacy or
7 relations, whatever you want to call it, prior to the
8 accident, has that changed since the accident?
9 A Yes.
10 Q Okay.
11 A Tenfold.
12 Q All right. All right.
13 Now, the medical bills, were they -- was there a
14 point in time that there were any coverage issues regarding
15 medical bills?
16 A Yes.
17 Q Okay. When did that happen?
18 A I don't know.
19 Q Roughly?
20 MR. SADLOCK: Her Pip coverage exhausted. There
21 is no health insurance.
22 BY MR. COOK!
23 Q So at the time that your Pip coverage had ended,
24 there was -- you didn't have any other health insurance?
25 A No.
Page 55
1 Q Okay. When you were previously working for
2 Pinnacle, did you have health insurance?
3 A No.
4 Q Okay. Was there a point in time prior to the
5 accident that either you or your husband had health
6 insurance?
7 MR. REINFORD: Before we were married.
8 THE WITNESS: Yes, I had health insurance before.
9 BY MR. COOK:
10 Q Okay. Was that through Pinnacle or was that --
i 1 A No, no.
12 Q Was that a result of some other employer or --
13 A Another employer.
14 Q Before you started at Pinnacle?
15 A I had health coverage when working with Total
16 Exposition, Exposition Concepts.
17 Q Was that before you went to HACC?
18 A Yes, a year before.
19 Q Okay.
20 A I had health coverage while working at Masonic
21 Homes.
Page 56
1 A We're not quite sure yet.
2 Q Okay. Are there any other future expenses that
3 you are aware of or might anticipate as a result of this
4 incident and/or your treatment?
5 A Now, a doctor's point of view, I can't give you,
6 but from what Dr. Hartman says, I will have probably
7 on-going pain management therapy. And I don't know how
8 long I will be on the medication, if it's -- you know, it's
9 been two years now.
10 Q Back to the meds. Has there been any change in
11 the dosage?
12 A Yes.
13 Q That you are aware of?
14 A Yes, yes.
15 Q Do you know what medications the dosage was
16 changed?
17 A The hydrocodone, that was upped to two tablets
18 every four to six hours instead of one.
19 Q Okay. The Oxycodone?
20 A Yes. I believe that was five milligrams when
21 first prescribed, then he upped it.
22 Q When you say he, you mean --
23 A Oh, Dr. Stuart upped it to fifteen.
24 MR. SADLOCK: Hartman.
25 THE WITNESS: Dr. Hartman, did I say that?
Page 57
1 MR. SADLOCK: You said his first name. I wanted
2 to clarify that.
3 THE WITNESS: I am sorry. Thank you.
4 BY MR. COOK:
5 Q Do you recall about when that was?
6 A It wasn't too long ago. Within the past three
7 months maybe.
8 Q Back to the Hydrocodone, do you remember who
9 upped that and when?
10 A Dr. Hartman upped it last year sometime.
11 Q Okay. All right.
12 Are there any other medications that you have
13 taken where the dosage has been increased during this since
14 the accident?
15 A Say it again, I am sorry.
16 Q I am sorry.
17 Since the accident, have there been any other
18 medications that you are on that were prescribed by a
19 doctor related to pain that have been increased or the
20 dosage has been changed?
21 A Just those two, and the muscle relaxer, instead
22 Q Do you anticipate or has any doctor anticipated 22 of taking that every eight hours, I am supposed to take it
23 any major medical expense? When I say major medical, 23 every six hours.
24 meaning other than maybe an office visit or the physical 24 Q Okay.
25 therapy that you talked about? 25 A I never got to finish the emotional stress part,

4 Q Is your husband's position an hourly position, a

6 A Hourly.
7 Q If you know?
8 A Well, hourly.
9 Q Okay. And roughly, did he bring home the same
10 amount every week, bi-weekly, monthly, whatever it turned
11 out to be?
12 A Yes, I think.
13 Q Okay. To your knowledge, has there been any
14 change in that salary, income or amount that he brought
15 home since the time of the accident?
16 A Yes, there has been changes.
17 Q Okay. Was it more or was it less than what he
18 was making prior to the accident?
19 A I believe it was less.
20 Q Okay. Maybe these questions could be directed to
21 him anyway. But was there a period of time where there
22 were any layoffs?
23 A No, I don't think so.
24 Q Okay. Any bankruptcies?
25 A No.
Page 63
1 Q Any unexpected financial burdens, damage to the
2 house that needed to be repaired, mortgage payment went up?
3 A I don't -- there are a couple times when we --
4 was it when our roof needed repaired? I don't remember. I
5 know we couldn't afford to -- the siding was starting fall
6 off, but I think Tim nailed it back up. There is other
7 stuff, but I can't remember what it is. He takes care of
8 that.
9 Q Okay.
10 A I try not to worry myself with it because I have
11 enough on my mind.
12 Q I am going to show you here -- well, we will go
13 back to 2001.
14 A Yes.
15 Q These are W2s.
16 A Uh-huh.
17 Q You will note -- look at the top categories here.
18 A Uh-huh.
19 Q For example, 2002, I am trying to read upside
20 down, If I get them wrong, let me know. About 19,000,
21 that was from Pinnacle?
22 A Yes. Tim was laid off, so I was working extra at
23 that time.
24 Q Okay. And then 2003, about twenty-one
25 A Yes. I was still working extra.
Page 64
Q And in 2004, it goes down to seven thousand
2 something.
3 A Yes. What do you want to know?
4 Q Okay.
5 A Tile difference'!
6 Q The amount?
7 A 5,442.
8 Q Just doing the rough math, you would agree that's
9 probably about twelve or thirteen thousand for the year?
10 A I don't know. Probably. Thank you. Yes.
1 I Q You would also agree that would be less than the
12 nineteen and the twenty-one in the previous years, correct?
13 MR. SADLOCK: We can stipulate that in 2004 the
14 combined total 12,000 is less than 19 and 21, but it's also
15 in line with 2001 where Pinnacle in 2001 was 12,000.
16 BY MR. COOK:
17 Q Okay. So is it then fair to say that that is
18 typically -- the 12,000, 13,000 is typically where you were
19 at per year unless you worked more and worked overtime as
20 you did in 2002 and 2003?
21 A I don't know.
22 Q Do you know why 2004 would have been less than
23 the previous years?
24 A Was Miranda was in kindergarten that year?
25 That's why -- I know there was a year that I had to -- we
Page 65
1 could not afford --
2 MR. REINFORD: Miranda was in kindergarten.
3 THE WITNESS: She was in AM kindergarten. I had
4 to get off work at a certain time and get home to her that
5 year.
6 BY MR. COOK:
7 Q And 2005 --
8 MR. SADLOCK: Combined total 2005 about 12,000 as
9 well.
10 BY MR. COOK:
11 Q Okay.
12 A So it went up from then to -- I haven't looked at
13 these for a long time. After she went to first grade, then
14 I started working more again.
15 Q Do you remember about when she went to first
16 grade?
17 A I think it was -- she's in fourth grade now.
18 What year did she start first grade?
19 MR. REINFORD: '03,'03.
20 THE WITNESS: 2003.
21 MR. REINFORD: Fall of 2003.
22 THE WITNESS: Oh.

7 When you did return to work either on a full time
8 or part-time basis, state whether the return has been to
9 full time or part-time employment. And the response was
10 worked for my manager at her office a few days a week here
11 and there.
12 A When she would need off for a doctors appointment
13 for her child or like two days over Christmas, but there
14 was a couch in the office that I could lay down that she
15 agreed to, and a phone right by the couch, and that's what
16 I would do.
17 Q When you say she, you are referring to --
18 A Tracy would refer -- yes.
19 Q Okay. All right. In the complaint that was
20 filed, there was a count for punitive damages in there. It
21 was alleged that my client had operated her motor vehicle
22 while intoxicated, and that constituted outrageous conduct
23 and reckless indifference. Okay.
24 Other than the alcohol issue, are you aware of
25 any other outrageous conduct or driving on her part that
Page 71
1 particular night?
2 A On her driving, I don't know her, no.

4 you didn't see any other driving, you didn't see her

6 A Yes.

8 incident, accident, other than maybe your husband, your
9 daughter, and my client?
10 A You mean who saw it happen?
11 Q Yes.
12 A I don't recall. There were so many people out
13 there, but I don't remember who saw it or -- I don't know.
14 Q To the best of your knowledge, no one has come
15 forward and -- that you know by name and said I saw this
16 accident happen?
17 A Wasn't there a big guy that was -- we're on Third
18 Street facing Bridge toward New Cumberland, wasn't there a
19 big, tall guy in his early twenties?
20 MR. REINFORD I don't know.
21 THE WITNESS: That said he saw --
22 MR. SADLOCK: Only if you recall.
23 MR. REINFORD: Only if you recall.

11 MR. SADLOCK: I have a couple though.
12 THE WITNESS: Okay.
13 BY MR. SADLOCK:
14 Q In describing the circumstances immediately
15 following the accident, I believe your testimony was that
16 you did go back to the defendant's car, is that correct?
17 A Yes, I did.
18 Q And I think that your testimony was that you
19 described her as being slumped over. What did you mean by
20 that?
21 A She was mumbling, and I think she was saying oh,
22 my God, oh, my God. And I kept saying are you okay, are
23 you okay. And it was like I wasn't even there. And then I
24 said look at me. And when she looked at me, she -- it's
25 like she looked through me, like she couldn't see me, like
Page 73
1 her eyes were crossed or something.
2 Q Glassy eyed?
3 A Yes.
4 Q Could you detect an odor of alcohol about her?
5 A Yes.
6 Q How would you describe the odor of alcohol about
7 her?
8 A Strong.
9 Q You also mentioned in your direct testimony that
10 you had -- it was hard to understand what she was saying.
11 What do you mean by that?
12 A She was slurring her speech. It was like she had
13 marbles in her mouth. She was saying oh, my God. That's
14 what I thought that she was saying.
15 Q Was it apparent then for that period of time that
16 you were with her at her car that she had been drinking?
17 A Yes, there is no doubt about that.
18 Q Did you see her at any time get out of her
19 vehicle?
20 A No, because my daughter was hysterical, and I
21 wanted to remove her from the situation, but I believe my
22 husband saw her.
23 Q Did he ever tell you what he saw in terms of her
24 ability to walk at the scene?
25 A I believe he told me that she couldn't even

10 with any information regarding the defendant's condition on
11 the night of the accident?
12 A Yes.
13 Q Okay. Do you recall who that officer was?
14 A Todd Ambrose.
15 Q What did he tell you?
16 A That she could not remember her phone number or
17 her address.
18 Q Because of what?
19 A Because she was so intoxicated.
20 Q Is there anything else that you remember about
21 her condition, the defendant's condition on the night of
22 the accident that you observed yourself or that was
23 commented to you that we haven't already talked about,
24 either any other comments or observations that you made?
25 A No. I do have a friend -- well, not a friend, I
Page 75
1 know a lady who works at West Shore Plaza Liquor Store.
2 And I went in there not too long ago. I would say it was
3 about a month ago. I was babysitting a little girl. I
4 went in to get a wine box, a wooden wine box. She said
5 Ronnie, how are you doing. And I said well, you know, we
6 talked about that. And she said did you hear Valerie got a
7 job at Pinnacle. 1 said oh, okay. She said she mentioned
8 that she still comes in there and purchases liquor. And I
9 said I will pray for her. I got my box and left.
10 Q How much time did you actually spend at the other
11 defendant's car after the accident?
12 A Probably about a minute.
13 Q But it was clear to you in that minute, that she
14 was intoxicated?
15 A Yes.
16 MR. sADLOCK: Okay. Thank you. I have no other
17 questions.

24 back to the car and what my client looked like, I did look
25 up as I was taking notes, I saw it appeared that you had
Page 76
1 your head down with your hands on your face?
2 A Yes.
3 Q Okay. The intoxication issue, I mean have you
4 been around people that were intoxicated before?
5 A Yes.
6 Q Okay. How often would you say that would occur?
7 A Well, we would get people in the hospital in
8 toxicology. So I worked with a lot of people that had
9 alcoholic problems and drug abusers. I would have to do
10 one on ones with them and stay with them for eight hours a
11 day, so there is no doubt in my mind.
12 Q Okay. Would they come in intoxicated?
13 A Some do.
14 Q Did you tell anybody at the scene, like the
15 police officer, that you thought that she had been drinking
16 or that she was intoxicated?
17 A Did I tell anyone? Yes, I did.
18 Q Do you recall who you told?
19 A Officer Ambrose.
20 Q Do you recall what you said to him?
21 A No. I said I believe that she was drinking,
22 there is alcohol on her breath, I can smell it.
23 Q Okay.
24 A I think -- I pretty much explained what I said to
25 you, what I said to Mr. Sadlock just a couple minutes ago,
Page 77
1 that's what I pretty much told him too, that's what I saw.
2 Q Okay. Okay. You smelled alcohol, slurring
3 speech --
4 A Yes.
5 Q -- that kind of stuff?
6 Okay. Now I am done.
7 A Okay.

9 Q What do you remember about the accident?
10 A Well, I was sitting at -- in my lane waiting to
11 turn left onto our street. And I was waiting for traffic
12 to pass so that I could make that left turn. And I was --
13 as I was sitting there, we felt a little jar to the camper.
14 My wife turned to me and said I think somebody just hit us.
15 I said I think you are right. My intention was then to
16 turn onto our street, pull off to the side and get out and
17 see what all happened.
18 As I proceeded to make my left turn after the
19 traffic cleared, from what I remember, just a smashing
20 sound, being jolted, and realized that somebody hit us.
21 Q Okay. That was on your left-hand side, on the
22 driver's side?

24 yes.

12 up. Let me ask you, after you felt what we will call the
13 second impact --
14 A Right.
15 Q As you are trying to make a left-hand turn --
16 A Yes.
17 Q What was the first thing that you remember doing?
18 A Trying to get out of my seat and realizing that I
19 could not get out. The impact literally tilted my seat.
20 Obviously, the car was right there. I could not get out my
21 door. I was making sure that my wife and my daughter were
22 okay. And the next thing that I recall is being outside of
23 the vehicle, so I must have climbed out the passenger side.
24 Q Okay. And do you remember observing anything
25 once you were outside?

6 grocery shopping, maintaining the vehicles, maintaining the 6
7 house. 7
8 Q Would you agree the number of arguments have 8
9 increased since the accident? 9
10 A I would agree. 10
11 Q Okay. Would you say that they're focused on 11
12 particular issues, or are they just -- could be anything? 12
13 A Arguments are majority about finances. 13
14 Q Any particular issue? 14
15 A Whether it be like a mortgage payment or car 15
16 payment, money that we used to have before to do certain 16
17 things we can't do now. It would be lack of money to make 17
18 our normal monthly payments on things. 18
19 Q Okay. If I am correct in this, your I guess 19
20 income has gone down probably about a dollar an hour or so 20
21 from the time that you left Velocity Cycles to your current 21
22 position. Does that sound about right? 22
23 A That sounds -- that year that I was laid off or 23
24 left, was fired from Velocity Cycles, I collected 24
25 unemployment and actually maintained a salary, it was equal 25

JURY TRIAL DEMANDED
PLAINTIFFS' RESPONSE TO DEFENDANT'S
MOTION FOR PARTIAL SUMMARY JUDGMENT
AND NOW comes the Plaintiffs, Rhonda L. and R. Timothy Reinford, by and through
his attorneys, Angino & Rovner, P.C., and hereby files the following response to the Defendant's
Motion for Partial Summary Judgment.
Plaintiffs' Complaint speaks for itself.
2. Plaintiffs' Complaint speaks for itself.
3. Plaintiffs' Complaint speaks for itself. By way of amplification, the Police
Accident Report for the instant accident is attached hereto as Exhibit A.
4. Plaintiffs' Complaint speaks for itself. By way of amplification, Plaintiffs'
Complaint includes a claim for punitive damages because, at the time of the accident, the
Defendant's BAC was .222.
5. Plaintiffs' Complaint speaks for itself.
6. Plaintiffs' Complaint speaks for itself.
7. Defendant's averment is a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is
required. To the extent the averment may be deemed factual, it is hereby specifically denied. By
way of amplification, Defendant's conduct was outrageous. Further, Defendant acted with
reckless indifference to the rights of Plaintiffs in causing the instant motor vehicle accident.
8. Defendant's averment is a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is
required. To the extent the averment may be deemed factual, it is hereby specifically denied. By
way of amplification, in the instant action, Defendant's conduct of operating her vehicle with a
BAC of .222 is sufficient ground for allowing punitive damages.
9. Defendant's averment is a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is
required. To the extent the averment may be deemed factual, it is hereby specifically denied. By
way of amplification, Plaintiffs can show that Defendant's conduct was outrageous and therefore
sufficient to warrant punitive damages. Specifically, Defendant's BAC was .222. See, Exhibit
A. By her own admission, Defendant was aware that driving while under the influence of
alcoholic beverages increases the likelihood or risk of injury. See, Defendant's Deposition
attached hereto as Exhibit B, p, 10, lines 3-17. Additionally, Defendant admitted, as of the date
of the instant accident, that the consumption of alcoholic beverages affects the ability to operate
374043 2
a motor vehicle. Specifically, Defendant admitted, "That you don't have the reactions, and you
are not yourself" See, Exhibit B, at p. 10, lines 18-25.
Defendant also admitted in her deposition that the consumption of alcohol would
absolutely effect one's ability to see, perceive, and react. See, Exhibit B at p. 11, lines 1-11.
Defendant admitted to drinking wine from approximately 3:00 or 4:00 p.m. (see, Exhibit
B p. 13, lines 1-2) until approximately 8:15 p.m. See, Exhibit B, p. 18, lines 1-4. Defendant
does not specifically recall how many glasses of wine she had or how large the wine glass was
that she was using. See, Exhibit B, p. 16, lines 18-24.
10. Denied. By way of amplification, the Defendant cannot specifically identify how
much alcohol she had to drink on the date of the accident. See, Exhibit B, p. 16, lines 23-24.
11. Defendant's averment is a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is
required. To the extent the averment may be deemed factual, it is hereby specifically denied. By
way of amplification, Defendant is not an expert. Further, a BAC of .22 clearly indicates that
Defendant was in fact significantly intoxicated and greatly impaired when she left her residence.
12. Defendant's deposition testimony regarding the distance from her home to Burger
King speaks for itself.
13. Admitted.
14. It is admitted that Defendant traveled approximately one block prior to the
accident. By way of amplification, Defendant admitted that in that entire block she never saw
Plaintiffs' truck or camper until just prior to impact. See, Exhibit B, p. 23, lines 21-24 and p. 23,
line 17.
374043 3
15. Denied. By way of amplification, Defendant stated that she did not know her
travel speed. See, Exhibit B, p. 24, line 21.
16. Admitted.
17. Admitted.
18. Denied. By way of amplification, as previously indicated herein, Defendant never
saw Plaintiffs' vehicle and camper until just prior to impact. See, Exhibit B, p. 23, lines 4-6 and
14-17.
19. Defendant's averment is a blatant mischaracterization of Defendant's testimony.
In fact, Defendant's testimony is that she hit Plaintiffs' vehicle, then tried to swerve and then hit
the vehicle again. See, Exhibit B, p. 26, lines 23-25.
20. Plaintiffs' deposition testimony speaks for themselves.
21. Plaintiffs' deposition testimony speaks for themselves.
22. Plaintiffs' deposition testimony speaks for themselves.
23. Plaintiffs' deposition testimony speaks for themselves.
24. Plaintiffs' deposition testimony speaks for themselves.
25. Plaintiffs' deposition testimony speaks for themselves.
26. Plaintiffs' deposition testimony speaks for themselves.
27. While Plaintiffs may not have seen Defendant's vehicle prior to impact, it is clear
Mrs. Reinford saw the Defendant immediately following the accident. Upon approaching the
Defendant's vehicle, Mrs. Reinford observed Defendant mumbling, glassy-eyed, slurring her
speech, slumped over, and giving a strong odor alcoholic beverages. See, Defendant's Exhibit C,
374043 4
p. 72, lines 18-25 and p. 73, lines 1-17). Further, Mrs. Reinford spoke with the investigating
officer shortly after the accident. The investigating officer advised Mrs. Reinford that,
immediately following the accident while still at the accident scene, Defendant could not
remember her home telephone number or address because of her level of intoxication. See,
Defendant's Exhibit C, p. 74, lines 13-19.
28. Admitted.
29. Denied. By way of amplification, Plaintiff testified that Defendant's consumption
of alcohol was outrageous. See, ¶ 27 herein.
30. Defendant's averment is a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is
required. To the extent the averment may be deemed factual, it is hereby specifically denied. By
way of amplification, attached hereto as Exhibit C are copies of photographs of the property
damage sustained by Plaintiffs. In fact, this was a significant impact. Further, it is hard to
believe that in one block, Defendant could not see Plaintiffs' vehicle.
31. Defendant's averment is a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is
required. To the extent the averment may be deemed factual, it is hereby specifically denied. By
way of amplification, Defendant's own knowledge regarding the affects the alcohol
consumption, the fact that Defendant never saw a large pick-up truck towing a large camper prior
to impact, and Defendant's slurred speech, glassy-eyes and odor of alcohol are all facts to be
considered.
32. See ¶ 31 herein.

33. Defendant's averment is a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is
required. To the extent the averment may be deemed factual, it is hereby specifically denied. By

inactions, and failure to react, are all sufficient factors to impose punitive damages herein.

87. NARRATIVE:
On Saturday, October 22, 2005 at 2039 hours, I was dispatched to a reported traffic accident at the intersection of South 3rd Street and
Walton Street in the Borough of Lemoyne.
On arrival, I found that the accident had involved two (2) vehicle's. Both vehicle's were still parked on the roadway and both appeared
to have extensive damage. A request was made at this time for the Fire Department, Fire Police and an ambulance to respond to the
scene.
The driver of Unit #1 was still sitting in her vehicle and I asked if she had been injured in the accident. The driver found to be a
Valerie Lair stated she was not injured. I then collected a vehicle registration card and vehicle insurance card and was advised by Lair
that she did not have her driver's license with her. I then questioned Lair regarding the accident . Lair stated, "we were both traveling
this way (motioned South on 3rd Street) and 1 don't know what happened after that". While speaking with Lair, I detected a strong odor
of alcoholic beverage on her breath as she spoke. I ler eyes were bloodshot and glassy and her speech was slurred when she spoke.
I then spoke with the driver of Unit #2 found to be a Ray Timothy Reinford. Reinford provided this officer with his driver's license,
vehicle registration card and Insurance. I then questioned Reinford in regards to the accident. Reinford while pulling a 1997 Terry
Camper was making a left hand turn off of South 3rd Street onto Walton Street when lie felt something hit his camper. Reinford said all
of a sudden a vehicle struck the side of his pickup truck. Reinford stated, he had his left turn signal on at the time.
In conducting the accident investigation, this officer attempted to conduct standerd field sobriety tests on Valerie Lair. Due to Lair's
level of intoxication testing was terminated. Valerie Lair was placed Under Arrest for suspected driving under the influence of alcohol
and transported to the Cumberland County Booking Center. Lair was advised of implied consent and submitted to a breath test which
resulted in .222 % BAC.
Unit # 1 vehicle was towed from the scene by Ken's Service Center.

7 consuming alcoholic beverages?
8 A Yes, yes, yes.
9 Q What was your understanding about driving after
10 consuming alcoholic beverages?
11 A That you shouldn't do it, you could hurt
12 yourself, hurt somebody else.
13 Q So prior to October 22, 2005, you were aware that
14 driving under the influence of alcoholic beverages
15 increases the likelihood or risk of injury to yourself and
16 others?
17 A Yes. Yes.
18 Q Prior to October 22 of 2005, were you aware of

20 ability to operate a motor vehicle?
21 A Yes.
22 Q Was that your understanding prior to October
23 22nd?
24 A That you don't have the reactions, and you are
25 not yourself.
Page 11
1 Q Your ability to see, perceive and react is
2 greatly effected?
3 A Absolutely.
4 Q Was it your understanding as well, again in
5 October of 2005, that the more alcohol consumed, the
6 greater effect on your ability to operate a motor vehicle
7 safely?
8 A Yes.
9 Q Again, the more you consume, the ability to see,
10 perceive and react decreases?
11 A Correct.
12 Q You were aware of that prior to October 22?
13 A Correct.
14 Q I believe that the accident, according to the

19 was?
20 A I believe it was a Saturday.

Page 12
1 football. And --
2 Q You mentioned you had a baby shower. Where was
3 that baby shower?
4 A Baughman Church in New Cumberland.
5 Q Was that for a family member or friend?
6 A Friend.
7 Q Was there any alcoholic beverages served at the
8 baby shower?
9 A No, no.
10 Q Allow me to finish my question. It's okay. It's
11 all right. So far I haven't changed midstream, but
12 occasionally you never know when I might start a question
13 and change my mind in mid-question. You want to make sure
14 that you hear the question. Again, so the court reporter
15 only has to wont' about taking one of us down at a time.
16 Prior to leaving for the baby shower, had you
17 consumed any alcoholic beverages?

3 Q You mentioned that you picked up and brought your

7 off at her house?

9 Q You continued then to your home?
10 A Yes.
11 Q Was your current husband at home when you got
12 home?

14 Q I know that.
15 A But yes, he was there.
16 Q What did you do the rest of the day up until the
17 time of the accident?
18 A Up until the time of the accident, we were
19 sitting watching football. I was doing crossword puzzles,
20 and we had a couple glasses of wine.
21 Q When you say a couple glasses of wine, can you --
22 A I have no idea. I have no idea.
23 Q Were you drinking - was this wine from a bottle
24 or a box that --
25 A Yes, a box, a box, yes.

6 October 22, 2205 other than wine?

9 accident?
10 A Well, I have a regular medication that I take. I
11 have Atenolol. I take Lexapro, Azichol for -- I have
12 Crohn's disease, and whatever vitamins that I take.
13 Q The other -- you mentioned one -- the drugs that
14 you take for Crohn's disease. What do you take the other
15 medications for?
16 A I had panic attacks when my ex-husband and I
17 first moved back here, so she gave me the betablocker,
18 which is the Atenolol and the Lexapro which is a serotonin
19 booster to stop all of the --
20 Q These are medications that you took on October
21 22,2205?
22 A I take them every day.
23 Q Are they medications that you take in the
24 morning?
25 A Morning.
Page I6
A No. I -- no. I did not go to the store that
2 day, no.
3 Q You mentioned that you had breakfast in the
4 morning. Did you have any other food of any kind up to the
5 time of the accident?
6 A Yes. There was tea sandwiches, vegetables, all
7 kinds of stuff at the shower. I had no cake, but I ate
8 other things.
9 Q You said that you got home somewhere between
10 three and four, is that correct?
11 A Uh-huh.
12 Q Is that ayes?
13 A Yes.
14 Q Prior to leaving your home and ultimately being
15 involved in the accident, did you have anything to eat
16 further at your home?
17 A No, I did not.
18 Q You mentioned that you were drinking wine. Were

1 Do you recall how much beer he had to drink while you were
2 home?
3 A I have no idea. I have no idea.
4 Q Was there anyone else at your home that evening?
5 A No.
6 Q Obviously since you were involved in the accident
7 there came a time period where you left your home that
8 evening, is that correct?
9 A Yes.
10 Q What was your reason for leaving your home?
11 A Really stupid. They kept flashing this Burger
12 King commercial. And it wasn't that far, I felt fine, and
13 I went. And I went into the Burger King to get the
14 hamburgers. They said they did not have them. Then I
15 pulled out on the road, was going home, and then that's....
16 Q What type of hamburger were you going for?
17 A It's a kind -- this is so stupid. God. It's
18 called a big angus burger, and it was a really good
19 hamburger.
20 Q They were sold out, they didn't have them?
21 A She said they weren't carrying them.
22 Q How far is the Burger King from your home in New
23 Cumberland?
24 A Less than a mile. Maybe a mile. Less than a
25 mile.

1 Q And at that point -- what time was it when you
2 left your home?
3 A I wasn't paying attention. I don't know. A
4 little bit after eight. 8:15, 20. I don't know.
5 Q And had you been consuming wine that entire four
6 hours since you had been home?
7 A Well, off and on, yes. I was sitting watching
8 football and --
9 Q Prior to October 22, 2005, how often did you
10 consume wine?
11 A A couple times a week.
12 Q When you did drink, how much would you drink
13 generally?
14 A A couple, two, three glasses I guess.
15 Q Two or three glasses two or three times per week?
16 A When I was at home, yes.
17 Q Prior to October 22 of 2005, had you ever
18 yourself considered yourself intoxicated?
19 A Probably in college.
20 Q Any time more recent than that?
21 A Not that I can think of, no.
22 Q Those times back in college when you felt
23 yourself intoxicated, how would you describe how you were
24 feeling at that time?
25 A Well, you just had too much beer at a party, you
Page 19
1 just felt woozy and --
2 Q On October 22, 2005, before you left your home to
3 go to Burger King after consuming wine, were you slurring
4 your speech at all?
5 A No. Go ahead.
6 Q Were you having any difficulty standing or
7 walking?
8 A No, sir.
9 Q Although you don't know or don't recall how much
10 wine that you consumed?
11 A I do not.
12 Q What was your blood-alcohol reading following the
13 accident?
14 A It's in the police report. Whatever it was that
15 they said. I don't recall that. It's there somewhere.
16 Q The police report indicates your blood-alcohol
17 concentration was point 222. Does that refresh your
18 recollection?
19 A That's what they said it was, yes.
20 Q Did you in any way contest that at any time?
21 A I didn't think that you really had a right to do
22 it.
23 Q Are you aware that's approximately three times
24 the level for intoxication?
25 MR. COOK: I will object to the form of the
a?v?u?i G? GVVO
Page 20
1 question simply because I think -- I am trying to remember
2 when they amended the statute.
3 BY MR. SADLOCK:
4 Q Well, if in fact the statute was amended at that
5 time, we're saying point 08 was the level. That would have
6 been approximately three times, correct?
7 A From what you are saying, yes.
8 Q If it was point 10, more than two times the
9 limit, is that correct?
10 A I guess.
11 Q Before leaving your home on that evening, did you
12 consider whether or not you should go given that you were
13 drinking?
14 A I did. I did not feel that there was anything
15 wrong.
16 Q You left your home alone?
17 A Uh-huh.
18 Q Is that yes?
19 A Yes.
20 Q Did Mr. Cliber make any effort to stop you from
21 going because of your consuming alcohol?
22 A No.
23 Q But again, prior to leaving your home on that
24 evening, you were aware of the effect of alcohol and the
25 ability to safely operate a vehicle?
Page 21
1 A Yes, if I would have felt strange -- I don't
2 drink and drive. If I am allowed to elaborate, I think if
3 I would not have felt fine, I never would have gone for the
4 hamburger or anything else.
5 Q Do you -- do you ever drink out at bars or
6 restaurants?
7 A Back in the day, no more.
8 Q When you say back in the day, when was the day?
9 A Twenties, twenties, early.
10 Q When your age was in the twenties?
11 A Yes.
12 Q Since then you do not go out to bars, restaurants
13 or --
14 A We do -- if we -- we'll have a drink, but we
15 don't really go out anywhere any more.
16 Q Have any of your job changes in any way been
17 associated with consumption of alcohol?
18 A No, sir.
19 Q What is your current height and weight?
20 A Five-four, and I weigh too much. I don't have to
21 tell you how much I weigh, do I?
22 Q Yes, you do.
23 A 165 maybe.
24 Q Any change in that from October 2005 to the
25 present? Were you the same then as you are now?

1 A No, I have been gaining weight.
2 Q How much would you weigh -- or did you weigh, if
3 you recall, on October 2005?
4 A Twenty, maybe thirty pounds less.
5 Q Tell me what you remember about the automobile
6 accident of October 22, 2205.
7 A I just remember pulling out of Burger King, and I
8 pulled right on the street. And the next thing I saw was
9 the vehicle. And I swerved to not hit it and then I hit
10 it, and that's all.
11 Q What street is the Burger King located on?
12 A Bridge Street in New Cumberland.
13 Q What street were you turning on to?
14 A I was taming out of Burger King on to Bridge
15 Street.
16 Q Okay. The police accident report indicates the
17 accident happened at the intersection of Walton Street and
18 South Third Street.
19 A Well, it's called Bridge Street. I don't know
20 why they call it South Third. It's -- in Lemoyne would be
21 Third Street, and New Cumberland, it's Bridge.
22 Q All right. Coming out of the Burger King parking
23 lot, would you have made a left turn or right turn?
24 A Right turn.
25 Q When you first got to the exit for Burger King,
Page 23
1 did you have to stop before making the turn?
2 A I slowed and there was no traffic, and I just
3 pulled on the road.
4 Q As you were pulling onto the road, did you see
5 the Reinfords' vehicle?
6 A I did not see -- I did not see the vehicle.
7 Q How far did you travel before the accident
8 happened?
9 A It was about a block.
10 Q Can you give me an estimate in terms of feet for
11 that block or miles?
12 A I have no idea. It was about maybe three or four
13 houses. I --
14 Q In those three or four houses, did you see the
15 Reinford vehicle?
16 A At the very last moment, I had. I don't recall
17 lights. I don't recall seeing anything.
18 Q Mr. Reinford was driving a truck pulling a
19 camper, is that correct?
20 A That's what I understand, yes.
21 Q And is it your testimony that you traveled three
22 houses or a city block and never saw their vehicle until
23 just prior to impact?
24 A Yes.
25 Q Was there anything obstructing your vision
Page 24
1 through the windshield?
2 A No.
3 Q Anything other than the -- possibly the effect of
4 alcohol effecting your ability to see or perceive their
5 vehicle?
6 A It was dark and it was rainy. That's -- until
7 the vehicle was there.
8 Q Did you have your headlights on when you left the
9 Burger King?
10 A Oh, yes.
11 Q Low beam or high beam?
12 A Regular, no, just regular lights.
13 Q You said that it was raining. Was it -- how
14 would you describe the rain?
15 A Drizzle. It was warm and drizzly.
16 Q With your windshield wipers going?
17 A I don't think so. I don't think so.
18 Q How fast were you traveling immediately prior to
19 the accident?
20 A Well, not that fast. Twenty, I don't know,
21 twenty-five, I don't know. I don't normally drive very
22 fast anyway.
23 Q Did you have any food or beverages in the car?
24 A I don't recall, no, because I didn't have my
25 burgers, no, the money was laying on the --
Page 25
1 Q Back in October 2005, did you smoke?
2 A Yes.
3 Q Did you have a cigarette lit just prior to the
4 accident?
5 A I don't remember.
6 Q Was your radio on in the car?
7 A I don't remember.
8 Q Did you have a cell phone at that time?
9 A I did have a cell phone.
10 Q Were you talking on the cell phone prior to the
11 accident?
12 A No, sir.
13 Q When had you last consumed alcohol prior to
14 leaving your home to go to Burger King? Had you just
15 finished a drink?
16 A I don't remember.
17 Q You mentioned that you were consuming wine from a
18 box. Was the box -- how full was the box when you started?
19 A I have no idea.
20 Q Did you check it after the accident?
21 A No, I didn't even go near it, no.
22 Q Has there been any change in your drinking habit
23 since this accident?
24 A Yes.
25 Q How so?

1 A Well, I hardly drink any more, and I would never
2 even leave my house. We don't go out to dinner. We don't
3 do things that we would have done and take any kind of
4 chances any more.
5 Q I believe in some ads it talks about drinking and
6 driving, it talks about impairment begins with the first
7 drink. Have you heard that before yourself?
8 A Yes.
9 Q Did you hear that before October 22, 2005?
10 A I am sure I have. I am sure I have.
11 Q Did you give that any consideration before going
12 out on October 22, 2005?
13 A I didn't really think about it because I did not
14 feel intoxicated.
15 Q Even though you weren't aware of how many glasses
16 of wine that you actually consumed?
17 A No.
18 Q Or what your blood-alcohol level was before
19 leaving the house?
20 A Correct.
21 Q Describe the accident for me, please. What
22 happened?
23 A I did already. I just came up on the truck and I
24 hits. And I -- well, I tried to swerve and then I hit it
25 again. That's all. At that point, I just went into shock.
Page 27
1 I remember nothing before after or anything.
2 Q Was the Reinfords' vehicle moving when you hit
3 it, or was it stationary?
4 A I seemed to me to be I guess stationary. I mean,
5 like I said, it just -- it all went into a blur.
6 Q Did you strike the actual vehicle that
7 Mr. Reinford was operating or the trailer?
8 A The trailer.
9 Q You hit the trailer first. Did you ever hit the
10 vehicle that Mr. Reinford was driving?
11 A When I bounced, it -- I guess when I turned, it
12 hit up further a little bit.
13 Q What happened then after the accident?
14 A I sat in my car. The police officer came, and he
15 said were you drinking and I said yes, I was. And he took
16 me out of the car, and he wanted me to do the walk thing.
17 And I said to him that I have a bad back and bad knees,
18 that it wasn't going to really make a difference. And so
19 then -- I don't remember in between, then he -- they
20 handcuffed me and took me in the back of the car and took
21 me to Carlisle.
22 Q Did you actually perform the walk test?
23 A I did it up there. I mean I was fine. I just
24 said right now if you want me to, I couldn't do it for you.
25 Q Did you have any difficulty at the accident scene
JANUARY 2, 2008
Page 28
1 remembering your telephone number or home address for the
2 police officer?
3 A No.
4 Q Did you slur your words to the police officer?
5 A Maybe I had, I don't know. I don't think I had,
6 but --
7 Q Did you have any contact with Mr. or Mrs.
8 Reinford at the accident scene?
9 A No.
10 Q Have you had any contact with them since that
11 date to the present?
12 A Not to my knowledge, I have not.
13 Q You were charged with driving under the
14 influence?
15 A Yes, sir.
16 Q You pled guilty to that?
17 A Yes, sir.
18 MR. COOK: Well, I will object to the form. I
19 don't think that actually accurately reflects what
20 occurred. There was an A.R.D. placement, which would not
21 be the functional equivalent of a guilty plea.
22 BY MR. SADLOCK:
23 Q Just so we're clear. You didn't contest the
24 charge, is that correct?
25 A No.
Page 29
1 Q For example, didn't proceed to trial?
2 A No.
3 Q And your license was suspended, is that correct?
4 A Yes.
5 Q For a period of I believe it was sixty days?
6 A Yes.
7 Q Did you get your license back?
8 A Yes.
9 Q As part of the A.R.D. program you also had to
10 attend DUI school and counseling, is that correct?
11 A Yes, yes.
12 Q Where did you attend that?
13 A Oh, where was it? A church in Mechanicsburg. I
14 can't remember the name of it.
15 Q For how long did that program last?
16 A Six weeks I believe.
17 Q Other than that program, have you ever been
18 yourself referred or by anyone else referred to attend an
19 alcohol-type program?
20 A No, sir.
21 Q Or attend Alcoholics Anonymous or anything of
22 that nature?
23 A No, sir.
24 Q Are you aware of anything that Mr. Reinford
25 himself did in the operation of his vehicle that caused or
