A. P. TEA CO. v. PHILA. R.T. CO

Negligence — Street car — Truck — Crossings — Collision — Contributory negligence — Judgment non obstante veredicto.

It is the duty of the operator of a truck, when driving over a double line of street car tracks, to look for the approach of trolley cars at the entrance on each track before attempting to cross it.

The operator of a truck may not rest on the assumption that an approaching trolley car will stop at the crossing. He must pay attention to its approach.
