An appeals court has cleared a driver in a fatal crash after agreeing she faced an "unforeseen emergency" when a back-seat passenger untied her bikini top.
Brittany Lahm of Manhattan briefly took her hands off the wheel when her bikini top came off while she was driving on the New York Thruway in July 2008, the Daily News reported ( http://nydn.us/1b01Hz9 (http://nydn.us/1b01Hz9) ).
Lahm and a group of friends were returning to Rockland County after a day at the New Jersey shore when Brandon Berman allegedly pulled the bikini strings. He was killed when the vehicle hit a guardrail and flipped.
In a 3-1 decision, the Brooklyn Appellate Division last week upheld a Rockland jury verdict, which found Lahm's bikini top problem constituted "a sudden and unforeseen emergency not of her own making."
The verdict came after a 2011 civil trial brought by Jason Pelletier, one of four passengers in Lahm's car.
