309 Ill. App. 437 (Ill. App. Ct. 1941)

Opinion

Opinion filed March 1, 1941.

AUTOMOBILES AND MOTOR VEHICLES, § 115head-on collision, sufficiency of evidence. Where plaintiff and defendant had a head-on collision on a road which had a central oiled portion not wide enough for two cars to pass, and a dirt shoulder on either side of the oiled section, and evidence was conflicting as to whether defendant turned off on his own side of the center line or drove on plaintiff's portion of the road, lower court properly refused to direct verdict for defendant, and verdict for plaintiff was supported by evidence that after the collision defendant's car was partly on the wrong side of the road.
