WHEEL STOP OPEN AND OBVIOUS AND NOT INHERENTLY DANGEROUS.

The Second Department after the grant of defendant’s summary judgment motion in this slip and fall case. The wheel stop over which plaintiff tripped was deemed open and obvious and not inherently dangerous:

Although a landowner has a duty to maintain its premises in a reasonably safe manner … , there is no duty to protect or warn against an open and obvious condition that is not inherently dangerous … . Generally, “[a] wheel stop or concrete parking lot divider which is clearly visible presents no unreasonable risk of harm” … .

Here, the defendant established its prima facie entitlement to judgment as a matter of law by submitting, inter alia, the plaintiff’s deposition testimony and photographic evidence demonstrating that the plaintiff tripped when her foot came into contact with a wheel stop that was open and obvious and not inherently dangerous. Among other things, the plaintiff testified at her deposition that she noticed the yellow cement wheel stops in the parking lot shortly before her accident … . Bogaty v Bluestone Realty NY, Inc., 2016 NY Slip Op 08343, 2nd Dept 12-14-16
