The plaintiff, an adult female, suffered head trauma with post-concussive syndrome and cervical, thoracic and lumbar strains while she was a front seat passenger in a southbound vehicle. At the same time, a southbound vehicle operated by the defendant collided with the rear of the vehicle carrying Hopkins, and pushed it forward into the rear of another vehicle.

The plaintiff claimed that the defendant was negligent, negligent per se and careless for failing to keep a proper lookout, failing to keep his vehicle under control, failing to apply his brakes or take evasive action to avoid the collision, driving at an excessive rate of speed for conditions, and failing to maintain a reasonable distance between vehicles. The defendant denied liability.

The plaintiff brought a personal injury lawsuit against the defendant for damages arising out of the chain reaction motor vehicle accident. The jury found the issues in favor of the plaintiff, and awarded her $6,886.58 for past medical expenses and $500 for non-economic damages.
