Hawkins v. Allen
Hawkins v. Allen
Opinion of the Court
Appeal from a judgment in a case tried to the court, in favor of plaintiff for about $180, arising out of an auto collision. Affirmed, with costs to plaintiff.

The believable evidence indicates that plaintiff sig-nalled for a left turn and had almost completed it when defendant, who immediately prior thereto, started from a parked position, collided with the rear end of plaintiff’s car while trying to go through the intersection. The trial court concluded that defendant was negligent and plaintiff non-negligent on evidence that at best was controversial and somewhat based on estimates as to split-second circumstances with respect to time, distance and judgment. We cannot say that the trial court’s conclusion was such as constituted prejudicial error re
. Title 41-6 et seq., Utala Code Annotated 1953.
