OPINION

JOHN CAYCE, Chief Justice.

Ramona Smith sued Southwestern Bell Telephone Company and Steven T. Miller for damages she allegedly suffered as a result of an automobile accident. The trial court granted Southwestern Bell summary judgment on Smith’s claims against it and granted Miller a directed verdict on Smith’s claims against him. Smith challenges both of these rulings on appeal. Because we conclude that the directed verdict for Miller was proper, we will affirm the trial court’s judgment without reaching Smith’s complaints regarding the summary judgment for Southwestern Bell.
