FACTS:
A 26-year-old female alleged that she suffered a right tibial plateau fracture when she was struck by the male defendant’s vehicle, as she attempted to cross the roadway at a designated crosswalk. The plaintiff contended that the defendant operated his vehicle in a negligent manner, failed to keep a proper lookout, drove at an excessive rate of speed, and failed to yield the right-of-way to a pedestrian. The defendant denied liability and disputed the extent of the plaintiff’s injuries.
