Doctoroff v. Perez

6/7/2005

proximate cause of the accident and further that "his action did not constitute a pattern or policy of dangerous driving." (Citation and punctuation omitted.) Id.


Similarly, as the trial court recognized, Perez's actions in driving without a valid license was not the proximate cause of the accident here. Rather, the collision occurred because Perez admittedly failed to yield to Doctoroff's oncoming car. Moreover, a review of the record reveals no evidence that Perez caused this collision through a pattern or policy of dangerous driving. Miller v. Crumbley 249 Ga. App. 403, 405 (3) (548 SE2d 657) (2001). Under these circumstances, we find that the trial court did not err in granting summary judgment on Doctoroff's claim for punitive damages.


Judgment affirmed. Smith, P. J., and Ellington, J., concur.
