• Carter v. Lovelace, 844 P2d 1288 (Colo. App. 1992). Representation for a motor vehicle collision that occurred when the plaintiff was passing a motorhome. A case that made new law after it was tried the second time. The motorhome abruptly turned left to enter a roadside rest area as the plaintiff was alongside the motorhome. There were a number of issues in the case including the cause of death of the plaintiff’s wife that occurred several months after the accident and that the collision occurred about 50’ beyond the end of the passing zone.

This negated the defendant’s claim that the plaintiff had assumed the risk of injury when he pulled out to pass the defendant and two other vehicles that were following the slow moving RV.
