The cases having been consolidated for trial, plaintiffs had jury verdicts against all defendants. From judgments non obstante veredicto in favor of defendants O’Donnell, plaintiffs appeal.
We view the testimony for purposes of this appeal in the light most favorable to plaintiffs. Staunton v. City of Detroit, 329 Mich 516. So viewed, the f aets-a-re: - Plaintiffs -were in an automobile traveling-north in the east lane of a 4-lane highway. The O’Donnells were in their automobile, stopped at the edge of the highway' on. a .driveway to. the east of *203it. When plaintiffs were 504 feet south of the driveway the O’Donnell automobile pulled onto the highway in a southwesterly direction, and proceeded at from 15 to 20 miles per hour. At that time, at a point 495 feet north of the driveway, defendant Mc-Tiernan’s automobile was traveling south at a high rate of speed in the third lane from the east, passing a truck which was in the west lane. The O’Donnell automobile crossed the 2 east lanes, each 10 feet wide, and proceeded south or southwest in the third lane from the east, being, according to one plaintiff, entirely west of the center line “except probably 1 wheel on the back.” It had reached a point approximately 60 feet south of the driveway when the Mc-Tiernan automobile overtook it, veered to the left, and “a commotion” occurred between the 2 automobiles. McTiernan’s testimony, construed and viewed in the light most favorable to plaintiffs, was that immediately before he struck the rear of the O’Donnell automobile it had just appeared in front of him at an angle and had just about gotten into the third lane from the east. The right front of the McTiernan automobile struck the left rear of the O’Donnell automobile and then went to the left, crossing the east lane in front of plaintiffs after knocking the O’Donnell automobile out of control and causing it also to swing to the east in front of plaintiffs, whereupon the automobile in which plaintiffs were traveling struck the O’Donnell automobile broadside at a point 150 feet south of the driveway. The accident occurred at dusk and all 4 vehicles had their headlights on.
In entering judgment non obstante veredicto the trial court was of the opinion that under plaintiffs’ proofs O’Donnells must be held, as a matter of law, free from negligence that was a proximate cause of plaintiffs’ injuries and damages. Inherent therein is a holding that plaintiffs’ proofs were insufficient *204to give rise to a question of fact whether the O’Donnells were guilty of negligence which was a proximate cause of the collision between the O’Donnell and McTiernan automobiles.
Plaintiffs contend that the evidence does give rise to a question of fact whether O’Donnells were guilty of (1) failure to make proper observation before entering the highway or third lane, (2) failure to see the McTiernan automobile approaching or, (3) having seen it, failure to form a reasonable judgment of its speed and distance away, (4) failure to continue to make observations' of it, (5) taking chances and proceeding in the; face of1 known danger, (6) traveling at an excessively slow speed in crossing the 2 east lanes and proceeding in the third, and whether such conduct, dr any of it, constituted negligence which was a proximate cause of the collisions.
In Weever v. Weiandt, 321 Mich 585; and Miller v. Pillow, 337 Mich 262, the relative positions and courses of action of the plaintiffs were comparable to those of the- O’Donnells at bar. In both we held, in response to contentions that they should be held guilty of contributory negligence as a matter of law, that the question presented was one of fact for the jury. Under the facts as above outlined, we think the question whether O’Donnells were guilty of negligence which was a proximate cause of plaintiffs’ injuries is equally a question of fact.
' Although the instructions of the court to the jury are set forth in full in the record, no claim of error therein is made oh appeal nor does it appear that defendants filed a motion for a new trial based on such claim; hence, we refrain from passing on it.
Judgments non obstante veredicto for defendants O’Donnell are reversed and the causes remanded for *205entry of judgments on the verdicts against them. Costs to plaintiffs.
