Supreme Court of North Carolina
Kelley v. Life & Casualty Insurance, 169 S.E. 159 (N.C. 1933)
204 N.C. 594; 1933 N.C. LEXIS 205
PER CURIAM.

Kelley v. Life & Casualty Insurance

Opinion of the Court

Pee Cueiam.

Tbe policy insures tbe plaintiff against tbe result of bodily injuries received while it is in force and effected solely by external, violent, and accidental means “by collision of or any accident to . . . any motor driven truck inside of which tbe insured was riding or driving; . . . provided, that in all cases referred to in this paragraph there shall be some external or visible injury on tbe said vehicle or elevator of tbe collision or accident.”

Tbe trial court was correct in bolding that tbe evidence offered by tbe plaintiff does not bring bis case within tbe terms of tbe policy. There was neither such collision or accident nor such external or visible injury to tbe truck as comes within tbe contemplation of the parties to tbe contract. Tbe judgment is

Affirmed.
