Opinion

UDALL, Justice.

The plaintiffs, George Rivera and Mary Rivera, his wife, brought this action against defendants E. V. Hancock and Jean Hancock, his wife, to recover damages in the aggregate sum of $55,000 for personal injuries they allegedly sustained in a collision with defendants’ car. The case was tried to the court, sitting with a jury. The jury returned a verdict in favor of defendants and judgment was entered thereon; motion for new trial was made and denied and this appeal followed. Plaintiffs appear here as appellants, the defendants as ap-pellees, but they will be referred to as plaintiffs and defendants.

The scene of this unique accident is difficult to describe in words and may best be visualized by a diagram thereof which we have had prepared from exhibits in evidence:
