Description
Action commenced April 30, 1947 by Isabelle Crawley against Kent Arthur Hill, Employers Mutual Liability Insurance Co., and Junius Jamieson to recover damages for the wrongful death of her husband. Judgment was entered February 7, 1948 in favor of the plaintiff for $7,044.56 against defendants Kent Arthur Hill and Employers Mutual Liability Insurance Co. The complaint against the defendant Junius Jamieson was dismissed. Defendants Kent Arthur Hill and Employers Mutual Liability Insurance Co. appeal. The accident occurred on December 26, 1946 between 5:00 and 5:30 in the afternoon on highway 51 and 151 just outside the Madison city limits. Crawley, the plaintiff's husband, was running in a northerly direction to cross the highway. He evidently didn't see the car of defendant Hill approaching from the west and ran onto the highway. He was struck by the automobile at a distance of approximately six feet, one inch from the edge of the highway and died of the injuries. Defendant Hill was 16 years old, but had been driving for four years. He was driving a 1941 Pontiac in good condition owned by defendant Jamieson and was accompanied by Jamieson's daughter, Janet. There was a conflict of evidence as to how fast Hill was driving and whether he had the car under control. The jury in a special verdict found Hill negligent as to speed, lookout, and management and control and Crawley negligent as to lookout, yielding the right of way, and in the manner of his crossing. They assessed Hill's negligence at 80% and Crawley's at 20% of the total negligence causing the accident.
