ST. LOUIS – A St. Louis driver is alleged to have entered into an occupied lane of travel and collided with another vehicle.

Kimberly Johnson filed a complaint on Oct. 9 in the St. Louis Circuit Court against Charles Hampton alleging negligence.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that on May 24, 2017, she was traveling west on North Florissant Avenue at or near its intersection with Blair Avenue in St. Louis when her vehicle was struck by the defendant's automobile. She alleges she sustained injuries to her back, neck and right leg as a result of the auto accident. 

The plaintiff holds Hampton responsible because the defendant allegedly failed to maintain a proper lookout, failed to yield to the right of way, entered into an occupied lane of travel and failed to take evasive actions at the first appearance of danger.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks damages in excess of the jurisdictional limits of the court, interest, costs and any further relief that may be appropriate. She is represented by Brent E. Labovitz of Kolker & Labovitz in Clayton.

St. Louis Circuit Court case number 1822-CC11373
