Description
An intersectional automobile collision resulted in this suit for damages by appellant Burke, the operator of one vehicle, against respondent Moyer, the other driver. After a jury verdict for Burke, the trial court, on the after-trial motion of Moyer, entered judgment for Moyer notwithstanding the verdict and, in the alternative, ordered a new trial should the judgment for Moyer be overturned. Burke appeals seeking reinstatement of the original result. The accident occurred at midday on April 7, 1976, at the intersection of U.S. Highway 24 and North Cottage Street in Independence near the site of the Truman Library. Highway 24, a non-divided, four-lane, through route, running east and west to the south of the library, affords access to this memorial by four ramps and an underpass which permit both westbound and eastbound vehicles to exit from and re-enter upon the highway without crossing opposing traffic lanes. North Cottage intersects the highway immediately to the west of the ramps by which westbound motorists re-enter the highway and eastbound motorists exit. Cottage, however, only intrudes from the north, thus presenting a ""T"" configuration with the ramps joining at approximate angles of 45 degrees.
