Description
The plaintiff, a girl of seventeen years of age, was walking home from school after dark on a February afternoon, along with one of her classmates, Raymond Blackburn. There had been a snow storm and the highway had been cleared, leaving a snowbank on each side. The paved portion of the road was partly covered with snow but was bare at the center; the shoulders, some two and one half to three feet wide, were covered with about an inch of snow. The plaintiff and her companion were, according to their testimony, walking in single file a very short distance apart, on the right hand shoulder and close to the snow bank. The defendant who was driving an automobile in the same direction struck them from behind, causing the injuries to the plaintiff for which she seeks recovery. In the court below the verdict was in her favor, and the cause is here upon the defendants exceptions.
