McFARLAND, Chief Justice:
Plaintiffs Donald and Margaret O’Donnell sued defendants Keith and Shirley Maves for injuries received by Mrs. O’Donnell in an automobile accident on October 1, 1960, while she was a passenger in a Pontiac automobile driven by her husband. At the time of the accident, their car was stationary, waiting for a traffic light to turn green, when it was rear-ended by Mr. Maves’ 1955 Chevrolet.
The complaint alleged only general negligence. The answer denied negligence, and pleaded unavoidable accident. A jury returned a verdict for defendants, and plaintiffs have appealed.
