Description
This is an appeal from a judgment rendered on a jury verdict in favor of Leroy Jackson and against Dairyland Insurance Company
("Dairyland") for $20,000. The dispute between these parties arose from a motor vehicle accident in which Jackson was injured. Jackson was driving his brother's 1985 beige Isuzu pickup truck in the westbound lane of U. S. Highway 80 in Macon County
immediately before the accident occurred. According to his testimony, two automobiles passed him traveling at a high rate
of speed. Jackson testified that after the second of those two automobiles pulled in front of him its engine "blew up." The
resulting cloud of smoke obscured his vision, he said, and he swerved into the eastbound lane of the highway. Upon crossing
the lines dividing the two lanes of the highway, Jackson had a head-on collision with a 1980 red Toyota pickup truck. Both
Jackson and Michael Reaves, a passenger in the Toyota pickup truck, were severely injured.
