2006The trial court granted the defendant’s motion for summary judgment, concluding that the action did not fall within the motor vehicle exception of § 31-293a because the plaintiffs injuries arose out of the special hazard of “working in an automotive repair bay performing 30 point test inspections on vehicles” and because the plaintiff therefore “was not facing the hazards encountered by the general public as motorists . . . ,” 6 (Internal quotation marks omitted.)
