No exception appears between \u201c(A)\u201d and \u201c(A)\u201d; but after the last \u201c(A)\u201d there appears, without explanation of any kind, these words and figures: \u201cException No. 1, Exception No. 2, Exception No. 8, Exception No. 4.\u201d These \u201cexceptions\u201d do not in any manner indicate in what respect defendant considered the charge erroneous. In Assignments of Error Nos. 1, 2, 3 and 4, which he attempts to base on said \u201cexceptions,\u201d defendant asserts the court erred in failing to instruct the jury as to matters set forth for the first time in said assignments of error.\nDefendant\u2019s Assignments of Error Nos. 1, 2, 3 and 4 are not supported by exceptions previously noted as required by our rules. See Rules 19(3) and 21, Rules of Practice in the Supreme Court, 254 N.C. 783, and cases there cited. Hence, they present no question of law for this Court to decide. Rigsbee v. Perkins, 242 N.C. 502, 87 S.E. 2d 926. \u201cWhile exceptions to the charge may be noted after trial, when the statement of case on appeal is prepared,-\u25a0 even so, such exceptions should be included in appellant\u2019s statement of case on appeal as served on the appellee, in order that the latter may be fully apprised at that juncture of the theory of the appeal.\u201d Moore v. Crosswell, 240 N.C. 473, 82 S.E. 2d 208. Since the \u201cexceptions\u201d do not specify wherein it is claimed the court erred in instructing the jury, they are broadside and wholly ineffectual to support the assignments of error. Rigsbee v. Perkins, supra. Moreover, an exception to the charge or an excerpt therefrom \u201cordinarily does not challenge the omission of the court to charge further on the same or another aspect of the case.\u201d Peek v. Trust Co., 242 N.C. 1, 16, 86 S.E. 2d 745; King v. Powell, 252 N.C. 506, 512, 114 S.E. 2d 265.\nWhile defendant\u2019s purported Assignments of Error Nos. 1, 2, 3 and 4 are insufficient to present questions of law for decision by this Court, consideration of the matters referred to therein fails to disclose prejudicial error. Moreover, no error of law appears on the face of the record.\nThe remaining assignments of error, Nos. 5 and 6, are formal and are not discussed in defendant\u2019s brief.\nNo error.",

Approaching the point of collision, plaintiff was driving north and defendant was driving south.
