Betty-Jean Landeen v. Kate Dibble et al.: A woman whose vehicle was hit head-on in a car crash two years ago has recovered nearly $250,000 in damages following a trial in New Britain.

Betty-Jean Landeen, 50, of Bristol, was driving east on Meriden Avenue on her way to work in Southington at around 7 a.m. Jan. 14, 2009. As Landeen approached the intersection with Carter Lane, she said that another driver, Kate Dibble, 19, turned left in front of her, causing the head-on collision.
