The opinion

*16 Judge WELLS

dissenting.

I cannot agree that the lending of defendant Toyota’s dealer tag to defendant Green was a proximate cause of plaintiff’s injury. See Federated Mutual Insurance Co. v. Hardin, 67 N.C. App. 487 , 313 S.E.2d 801 (1984). I also perceive that Eraemer v. Moore, discussed by the majority, supports my position. I therefore must respectfully dissent.
