SIMON, Justice.

This cause comes to us on certiorari addressed to the Court of Appeal, First Circuit, and involves primarily the question of fact whether a motorist, who, allegedly blinded by the switching of opposing oncoming lights from “dim” to “bright”, collided with the rear of a loaded cane truck and trailer parked in the center of the north lane of traffic on a standard two-lane concrete surfaced highway, at about 7:30 p.m., was contributorily negligent such as would bar recovery for damages to property and for personal injuries incurred by him as the result of the collision.
