Pennsylvania to issue policies of automobile insurance, and having its home office

4. At the time and place aforesaid, Plaintiff insured a 2001 Pontiac sedan
owned by Pamela Hoover.
5. At the time and place aforesaid, Pamela Hoover was driving the insured
vehicle south on East Penn Drive when she brought her vehicle to a stop for a dog that
ran into the street.

a 1998 Mitsubishi sedan, which she drove into the rear of the Hoover vehicle causing
substantial damages to the vehicle and personal injuries to Pamela Hoover.

assured clear distance ahead.
