HITER v. SHELP.

WEBB, Judge.

"Conceding, but without deciding, that the evidence demanded a finding that the defendant was negligent and that this negligence was the proximate cause of the automobile collision, the evidence authorized but did not demand a finding that plaintiff had suffered any injury attributable to the collision. The jury is the judge of the veracity of parties and witnesses; under the evidence in this record they were authorized to disbelieve plaintiff's claim of injury as a result of the collision. Accordingly the judgment for defendant, based upon the verdict of the jury, will not be disturbed." Levine v. Nowell, 115 Ga. App. 79 ( 153 S.E.2d 729). Accord, Miller v. Dean, 113 Ga. App. 869 (1) ( 150 S.E.2d 191); Brown v. Wingard, 122 Ga. App. 544 ( 177 S.E.2d 797); Brown v. Nutter, 125 Ga. App. 449, 451 (5) ( 188 S.E.2d 133); Krasner v. Lester, 130 Ga. App. 234, 236 (3) ( 202 S.E.2d 693).
