Description
This is an action to recover damages for injuries received by the plaintiff in a collision between automobiles driven by the
defendants Arnold Whirry and Robert E. Lloyd. On August 9, 1952, Arnold Whirry was a farmer residing near Montello, Wisconsin.
His wife had died and the plaintiff, his sister, was keeping house for him and his three children. Late in the afternoon of
said day Arnold Whirry left his farm with his family to attend the county fair at Westfield. He had invited the plaintiff
to accompany them. Arnold Whirry drove the automobile, his daughter Nancy sat next to him in the front seat, and the plaintiff
sat on the right side of the front seat. The other children were in the rear seat. Shortly before the accident he was driving
on County Trunk Highway J, a blacktop highway 20 feet in width with dirt shoulders, in a northwesterly direction. After rounding
a curve he would normally have driven westerly to Westfield. The defendant Lloyd had attended the fair and was driving easterly on County Trunk Highway J. For some distance before reaching
the curve he drove on the wrong side of the highway. The plaintiff saw the Lloyd car before Arnold Whirry saw it. She shouted
to him to 'look out' and he applied his brakes and had stopped, or had nearly stopped, when struck by the Lloyd car.
