Edward T. Wade, Judge, presiding. Heard in the Branch Appellate Court at the March term, 1913.\nAbstract of the Decision.\n1. Automobiles and garages, \u00a7 2 -\u2014when injury in collision is result of accident. Where a person operating an automobile at a street crossing in a proper manner and at a slow rate of speed, applied the brakes suddenly to avoid striking a pedestrian who ran in front of the car and the act caused the car to skid slightly and to come in contact with another car standing at the curb, injuring a portion of the top of such car, such injury was the result of an accident for which the person operating the automobile could not be held liable to respond in damages.\n2. Negligence, \u00a7 1 \u2014what is negligence. Negligence is the failure to bestow the care and skill which the situation demands, and if one exercise the degree of care required of a reasonably prudent man under the circumstances, he is not negligent.\nReversed with finding of fact.\nOpinion filed November 25, 1914.\nStatement of the Case.\nSuit by Harry C. Moir against Austin H. Hart to recover damages for injuries to an automobile top alleged to have been occasioned by the negligence of defendant. There was a finding and judgment against defendant for one hundred and twenty five-dollars, and he brings error.\nJames Turnock, for plaintiff in error.\nJohn D. Peterson and Jacob L. Fox, for defendant in error.\nSee Illinois Notes Digest, Vols. XI to XV, and Cumulative Quarterly, same topic and section number."
