Description
The action was commenced on October 19, 1945 by Paul N. Reynolds, plaintiff, against Madison Bus Company, a Wisconsin corporation, Herbert R. Amundson, and the American Fidelity and Casualty Company, a foreign corporation, defendants, to recover damages for injuries sustained in a collision between plaintiffs car and a passenger bus owned and operated by Madison Bus Company. The action was tried to the court and a jury and a special verdict rendered. The bus driver was found negligent as to lookout, management and control. He was held not to be negligent as to failure to yield the right of way. Plaintiff was found negligent as to lookout, control, management and right of way, but was exonerated on the charge that he failed to stop for an arterial highway. 55% of the negligence involved was attributed to defendant driver, and 45% to plaintiff. Damages to plaintiffs car, and for hospital and medical expenses were separately appraised and are not in issue on this appeal. The jury appraised plaintiffs damages for personal injury at $2,000. Judgment was entered upon the verdict on June 11, 1946 in the sum of $1,362.16, damages and $210.84 costs. Plaintiff appeals and defendants have filed a motion to review.
