Freudenberg v. Dooley

Appellate Court of Illinois, First District
Feb 14, 1940
303 Ill. App. 653 (Ill. App. Ct. 1940)

Opinion

Gen. No. 40,997. (Abstract of Decision.)

Opinion filed February 14, 1940.

AUTOMOBILES AND MOTOR VEHICLES, § 167.2instructions, as invited error. In action for injuries sustained in highway intersection collision, where plaintiffs charged both wilful and wanton misconduct and negligence, plaintiffs could not contend judgment for defendant should be set aside because instructions on due care failed to inform jury that contributory negligence was no defense to a wilful and wanton act, where instructions given by plaintiffs on due care were open to the same criticism.
