The accident occurred as Police Officer Manuel Orosa was proceeding westbound on the eastbound lane at S. W. llth Street. This street is a two- lane roadway for east and westbound traffic divided by a grassy median of approximately ten to fifteen feet in width. As I have stated, Officer Orosa was traveling in the opposite direction of filth Street contrary to traffic. Claimant, Omar Mora, was proceeding in a northerly direction on S. W. 35th 1 Avenue having the right-of-way. Officer Arosa disregarded_the..stop.sign for } S. W. llth Street and struck the claimant in the middle of the intersection j making contact with his front end and claimant's right front. After impact, claimant's vehicle continued in a northwesterly direction, going onto private property and finally coming to rest making contact with a tree with its front end. The claimant was treated at the scene by Fire Rescue and then transported. Liability in this case is clear. DAMAGES This request is strictly for property damage sustained by Cooper Oldsmobile in regard to their 1984 Cutlass Oldsmobile. At the time of impact, this vehicle only had approximately six miles on the odometer. There is no reconditioning to the vehicle since it was brand new, and therefore, there is no depreciation to be considered. The vehicle had a number of options such as power door locks, power windows, _ cruise control, AM/FM radio, tilt steering, and etc. The market value of this y vehicle is $11,863.00. EVALUATION In order to resolve the property aspect of this claim, we would be responsible for the dealer cost of the car, not its mark-up value. Therefore, based upon sr the dealer cost of this car, the invoice amount shows this vehicle was purchased for $90,923.94. However, this amount is reduced by the fact that the vehicle has some rather good salvage value in the amount of approximately $901.00, therefore the actual cost value of this vehicle would be $9,022.94.
