1Opinion of the Court

Cooper, Judge.

Appellants brought suit to recover for damage to their home and car after appellee Keith Finlayson swerved off the highway to avoid hitting a dog and struck appellants’ car, forcing the vehicle into appellant's home. The car had been provided to Keith by appellee James Finlayson, his father. The jury returned a verdict for appellees, and the trial court denied appellants’ motion for new trial. On appeal, appellants enumerate as error the court’s charges to the jury on legal accident and sudden emergency.
