Another Dangerous Condition Of Highway Claim Rejected By Court.

Plaintiffs were injured in car crash and brought an action for dangerous condition of highway against a county. The trial court granted summary judgment in favor of the county and the appellate court affirmed, stating: “The evidence established that the accident was caused by [another driver’s] intentional act of crossing the double yellow line into oncoming traffic. With respect to any harm arising from the lack of a center median, respondent established its entitlement to design immunity, by showing that an authorized official exercised his discretional authority to approve plans for the highway that included neither a median space nor a barrier.” Curtis v. County of Los Angeles (Cal. App. Second Dist., Div. 4; July 30, 3013) 218 Cal.App.4th 366.
