216 N.E.2d 62, 6 Ohio St. 2d 115, 35 Ohio Op. 2d 135, 1966 Ohio LEXIS 350
Ohio Supreme Court·Decided April 20, 1966·No. No. 39750·Published·Cited by 6 cases

Opinion

Per Curiam.

Defendant failed to comply with the assured-clear-distanee-ahead provision of Section 4511.21, Revised Code. An emergency caused by tire failure cannot serve as a legal excuse for such noncomplianee. The trial court was in error in charging the jury on sudden emergency. The judgment of the Court of Appeals is reversed. Stump v. Phillians, 2 Ohio St. 2d 209; Bird v. Hart, 2 Ohio St. 2d 9; Spalding v. Waxler, 2 Ohio St. 2d 1. See Kehrer v. McKittrick, 176 Ohio St. 192.

Judgment reversed.

Taft, C. J., Matthias, O ’Neill, Herbert, Schneider and Brown, JJ., concur.
