Hunt v. Carolina Truck Supplies, Inc.
Supreme Court of North Carolina
1Opinion of the CourtBobbitt, J.
All the evidence tends to show the collision, which was between the front of the Cadillac and the right side of the trailer, occurred on Hunt’s side of the two-lane highway; that, as the Hunt eastbound Cadillac and defendant’s westbound tractor-trailer approached each other, the tractor-trailer crossed to its left of the center of #74 and jackknifed, stopping with the front of the tractor in the ditch along the south shoulder and with the trailer across the lanes (particularly the lane for eastbound traffic) of #74; and that it was or had been “drizzling rain” and #74 was wet.
