The facts and occurrences hereinafter related took place on or about December 26, 2012 at approximately 3:59 p.m. on West Lisburn Road in Monroe Township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. 4. At or about that time and place, Plaintiff, Velma Miller was sitting in the rear passenger side of a vehicle driven by Loretta L. Hair that was being operated in a westbound direction on West Lisburn Road. 5. At or about that time and place, Defendant, William B.

Graham, crossed a double yellow line and entered the lane of travel of the vehicle that Plaintiff, Velma Miller was traveling in. 7. At or about that time and place, Defendant, William B. Graham was driving too fast for the conditions and lost control of his vehicle causing a collision between his vehicle and the vehicle that Plaintiff, Velma Miller was traveling in. 8. The foregoing collision and all of the injuries and damages set forth hereinafter suffered by Plaintiffs, Velma Miller and Gerald Miller, are the direct and proximate result of the negligent and reckless manner in which Defendant, William B.

In operating his vehicle at an excessive rate of speed under the circumstances, and/or without due regard to road and/or weather conditions; b. In failing to have his vehicle under proper and adequate control; C. In failing to apply his brakes in time to avoid the collision; d. In negligently applying his brakes; e.

Plaintiffs are entitled to recover non-economic damages because, among other reasons, at the time of this collision, Plaintiff, Velma Miller sustained a "serious injury," as that term is defined in the Pennsylvania Motor Vehicle Financial Responsibility Law. COUNT Velma Miller, Plaintiff v. William B. Graham, Defendant 11. Paragraphs 1-10 are incorporated herein by reference thereto. 3 12.
