Description
In this jury-tried action for damages in the sum of $15,000 on account of injuries alleged to have resulted from a vehicular collision, plaintiff appeals from an adverse judgment entered upon a unanimous jury verdict for defendant. About 7:30 A.M. on February 25, 1961, "a cold, frosty morning," A. J. Arnold, plaintiff herein, was riding in a 1958 Mercury sedan, owned by his son Bobby Lee (not then in the automobile), and being driven by his son Darrell, eighteen years of age. The Arnolds were proceeding in an easterly direction on U.S. Highway 60, which has a two-lane blacktop roadway approximately 24 feet in width, en route from the Arnold farm home near Seneca to Neosho where plaintiff was employed regularly and Darrell intended to seek employment. After traveling about one mile on Highway 60, "going upgrade all the time," at a speed estimated by both plaintiff and Darrell at 30 to 35 miles per hour, the right front fender of the eastbound Mercury ran into the left rear fender of a 1952 Ford automobile, also headed toward the east but then standing motionless, in which Mrs. Opal Fisher, defendant herein, had left her nearby farm home a very few minutes previously, en route to her regular employment in Neosho. Of the position of the Fisher Ford at the time of collision, we shall treat shortly.
