Description
Plaintiff appeals from a judgment rendered pursuant to a verdict for defendant in an action for personal injuries. The injuries resulted from a collision between a pickup truck driven by defendant and an automobile which was owned and driven by plaintiffs adult son and in which plaintiff was riding. Conflicting evidence, which need not be summarized, would support a determination that plaintiffs injuries were proximately caused by the negligence either of plaintiffs son or of defendant, or by the simultaneous negligence of both drivers. Plaintiff herself was guilty of no contributory negligence and the jury were so instructed. She contends that the trial court erred to her prejudice by submitting to the jury the question whether plaintiffs son was her agent so that his contributory negligence, if any, would bar her recovery. With this contention we agree.
