1. “Q ... again in your deposition, do you remember telling me that you don’t know if you were sliding or going straight? A I remember that I was going straight because that’s — I knew where I was going. Q Page 52, line 11, I’m going to read the question. (Reading from deposition) “Do you have a recollection? Can you describe the movement of the vehicle before you hit the hole? In other words was it proceeding ahead, straight ahead or was it sliding?” Line 16, answer, “I really don’t know. I really don’t know. Did your memory come back to you after this deposition about whether you were sliding? A Yes. [[Image here]] Q Do you know when you learned— when you remembered that you weren’t sliding? When was that? How long before this court trial today? A I don’t remember just exactly when it was, you know. I can’t pinpoint when I remembered.”
