In Summers v. Teddy Cab Corp ., James Summers was injured when he was hit by a car owned by Teddy Cab Corp.
After colliding with Summers' motorcycle, Teddy's driver admitted he changed lanes without determining whether he could safely do so.
When the Kings County Supreme Court found Teddy liable for the accident, the company appealed to the Appellate Division, Second Department.
Since Teddy was unable to show that Summers was somehow at fault for the accident, the AD2 affirmed the lower court's finding of liability.
Undeniably, this Teddy was exposed.
