A Langley woman has lost a $5,000 lawsuit against the Township of Langley after she damaged her vehicle trying to get out of the way of a fire truck.

The woman told a Small Claims Civil Resolution Tribunal that a Township fire truck had 91裸聊视频渂ullied91裸聊视频� her through an intersection and damaged her pickup.

On July 24, 2017, the woman was driving her white Ford F350 pickup on 264th Street, and had stopped for a red light at an intersection.

The flashing lights of a fire truck appeared in her rear view mirror, and the woman said she pulled over to the right to allow the truck to pass her.

91裸聊视频淎ccording to the applicant, the fire truck was very close to her vehicle,91裸聊视频� the tribunal91裸聊视频檚 Lynn Scrivener wrote in her judgment. 91裸聊视频淭he applicant says the fire truck was creeping forward, which led her to assume there was not enough room for it to pass.91裸聊视频�

So the pickup driver kept moving, saying she had 91裸聊视频渘o choice91裸聊视频� but to create space for the fire truck.

She felt a bump on the passenger side of her truck, where a sand-filled barrel and concrete barrier stood. After that, she decided the only way to get out of the fire truck91裸聊视频檚 way was to go through the intersection.

The incident left her with damage to the pickup91裸聊视频檚 passenger-side fender, running board, and door including scrapes, dents, and scratches.

She claimed $5,000 in damages for repairs.

The fire captain and driver of the pickup, however, didn91裸聊视频檛 remember the incident exactly the same way.

They were heading north responding to an emergency call. They waited until traffic in the southbound lane was clear before using that lane to get to the red light, where the driver stopped to make sure he could cross the intersection safely.

While they were waiting, the white pickup 91裸聊视频渟ped north across the road,91裸聊视频� according to the firefighters91裸聊视频� written testimony.

The fire truck then drove through the intersection, having confirmed there was no oncoming traffic.

The pickup driver admitted there was no contact between the fire truck and her Ford, Scrivener noted.

91裸聊视频淭here is no indication that the respondent91裸聊视频檚 employees [the firefighters] somehow directed the applicant to move her vehicle,91裸聊视频� Scrivener wrote.

While she may have felt pressure to get out of the way, there91裸聊视频檚 no evidence the fire truck forced her to drive into the barriers, Scrivener found.

The claim for $5,000 was dismissed.
