seriously injure himself.”

“That the Defendant, MOTOR CITY CARWASH, INC., either knew or
should have known of the existence of the dangerous condition of the common area and
should have taken steps to warn the Plaintiff, ARTHUR SOTLOFF, of the existence of the
dangerous condition.” ...........(more)

Dude was apparently not walking through the working area of the place (where cars are actually being washed).

So, 'it's a car wash, duh', is not exculpatory, if you will.

IF there WERE the proper signs, then his case is weaker, obviously.
