Description
This action for the recovery of damages is the outgrowth of a traffic accident which occurred on the main highway between Wagoner and Muskogee in Oklahoma. Plaintiff was a passenger for hire on defendants bus traveling southward. A road enters the highway from the west at a point near the village of Wybark and there is a filling station on the east side of the highway immediately opposite that point. As the bus approached the village and while traveling at between forty and fifty miles per hour, it overtook a truck going in the same direction. The bus driver sounded his horn once or twice; the truck driver turned slightly to the right; and the bus driver turned to the left to pass the truck. When the bus was about even with the truck, the truck driver, without giving any signal, turned to the left across the highway to enter the filling station. The bus driver swerved the bus to the left to avoid a collision with the truck, and before the bus could be stopped it ran into the small building at the filling station. Plaintiff was thrown from her seat and suffered personal injuries. A verdict was returned in her favor. Judgment was rendered upon it and the company appealed.
