CARMODY, Justice.
This is an appeal from a directed verdict in favor of the defendant (appellee here) in an action under the guest statute, § 64— 24-1, N.M.S.A.1953.
Two questions are presented, (1) whether the court erred in rejecting testimony of a statement claimed to have been made by an unidentified bystander at the scene of the collision as to the speed of the death car prior to and some distance away from the accident; and (2) whether there were sufficient facts proven showing heedless or reckless disregard of the rights of others so as to warrant the submission of the case to the jury.
