Stevens v. Liberty Mutual Ins. (415 So. 2d 51, 1982)

PER CURIAM.

A motorist traveling upon the public highway is not within the class of persons sought to be protected by an ordinance regulating removal of trees and vegetation. See generally deJesus v. Seaboard Coast Line Railroad Company, 281 So.2d 198, 201 (Fla.1973). In the absence of a violation of a statute, we adhere to the view that there is no common law duty on a landowner to maintain his property in a condition so that a motorist approaching a public highway intersection can see other approaching motorists. Evans v. Southern Holding Corp., 391 So.2d 231 (Fla. 3d DCA), pet. for review denied, 399 So.2d 1142 (Fla.1981). Accord Pedigo v. Smith, 395 So.2d 615 (Fla. 5th DCA 1981).

Affirmed.
