Description

During the early morning hours of April 3, 1971, Ronald Claxton was transporting himself and three passengers to their homes from a party in the City of Aberdeen. Traveling at an excessive rate of speed (between 50 and 80 miles per hour in a posted 35 mile-per-hour zone), the Claxton vehicle went out of control upon entering a curve on Curtis Street, a 4-lane arterial highway. After jumping over the curb and careening along the sidewalk for approximately 66 feet, the automobile violently collided with a solid barrier erected by the defendant City of Aberdeen to protect a breakaway light standard located directly behind the barrier. The collision resulted in the death of two of the vehicle's passengers, 15-year-old Debra Phillips and 22-year-old Richard Breivo, and serious injuries to the other passenger, 18-year-old Michael Gillman, as well as the driver, Ronald Claxton. The personal representatives of the deceased passengers and Michael Gillman brought suit against the City, contending it had been negligent in erecting a solid, immovable barrier only 13 inches from the traveled portion of the roadway. Following a consolidated trial of the passengers' lawsuits, a Grays Harbor Superior Court jury awarded the plaintiffs a total of $214,000 in damages. The City of Aberdeen appeals from the judgments entered on those verdicts.
