Plaintiff Richard Schneider, an attorney, was riding his motorcycle when he hit an unmarked center median island that was located directly in the middle of a two-way center turn lane. Mr. Schneider suffered severe brain trauma. Plaintiff’s attorney contended that the city of Santa Monica failed to follow its own sign, paint and striping plan. Plaintiff contended that they failed to install proper warning signs and failed to paint the proper striping to warn travelers of the danger of the center divider. Defendant City of Santa Monica claimed that it was immune from liability under certain government statutes. The City believed that its decision not to install warning signs and proper striping was discretionary and therefore they were not liable.
The case eventually settled for $4,400,000.00.
Penney and Associates does not guarantee the outcome of any case similar to the one discussed above.
