Gen. No. 9,655. (Abstract of Decision.)
Opinion filed April 12, 1941.
AUTOMOBILES AND MOTOR VEHICLES, § 117.1 — speed at intersection, sufficiency of evidence. In action for wrongful death as result of automobile collision, verdict for defendant was supported by evidence that deceased was traveling 60 miles, that he failed to slow down when he approached an intersection, and that he struck the left rear wheel of defendant, who was crossing the intersection from deceased's right, and testimony that deceased had told witness for whom he was working that he would get parts for some farm machinery if he had to travel 90 miles an hour to do it was not reversible error, as it did not indicate deceased was traveling at such speed at time of accident.
