Torts — comparative negligence

Frank Ritter appeals an order granting summary judgment in favor of Penske Trucking Leasing Company. Ritter argues that the circuit court erred by concluding, in effect, that Ritter’s negligence exceeded that of Penske as a matter of law. We agree with the circuit court that, based on undisputed facts, Ritter was more negligent than Penske as a matter of law. We therefore affirm the judgment. Not recommended for publication in the official reports.
