Description

The evidence, taken most favorably for the plaintiff, could be found to establish the following facts. On the seventh day of May, 1933, the defendant Miltimore was in the employ of the defendant company as an automobile-salesman in Milford, New Hampshire, where he resided. At the direction of the company he that day drove one of the company's cars into the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, in an attempt to locate a prospective customer. Pursuant to standing permission from the company, Miltimore took along as guest-passengers his wife (the plaintiff) and their two children. The Miltimores had the intention, after interviewing the customer, of proceeding to Boston and leaving one of the children there. But before they undertook this enterprise, and while Miltimore was still driving the automobile in Massachusetts in the course of his employment for the company in search of the customer, Miltimore felt drowsy, but continued to drive and fell asleep. In consequence the car went out of control, crossed the middle line of the highway and collided with another car. As a result the plaintiff suffered the injuries complained of. She herself was asleep at the moment of the collision, and she had been sleeping without knowledge of what was going on during the last half-mile or so of the progress of the defendant's car.
