ROBERT HUNTER v. PHILLIP A. WARD and DIANNE L. PUTNAM

27 Fla. L. Weekly D808 (Fla. 1st DCA Apr. 8, 2002)

The court found that a sudden stop by a lead vehicle is insufficient to overcome the presumption of negligence where the sudden stop is at a place where a sudden stop can reasonably be expected. The court found that the facts, viewed in a light most favorable to the appellee, did not show that the appellee rebutted the presumption of negligence.
