Description
September 28, 1956, at approximately 2:30 p. m., Frances C. Goodson drove her 1953 Buick Roadmaster convertible automobile, equipped with power brakes, out of an "angle" parking space on Madison street in the city of Seattle. She backed the automobile up the grade to clear the other parked cars and, as she started down the grade toward the intersection of First avenue and Madison street, approximately one hundred fifty feet away, she noticed that the traffic signal light was red. She stepped on the brake pedal, but the brakes failed to respond. The automobile struck a City Light Company truck driven by Clyde L. Moody, which was stopped at the crosswalk of the Madison street and First avenue intersection for the red signal light. The impact forced the truck forward into the pedestrian lane, where it struck and fatally injured Eugene Robert Woods, who was crossing in the lane. Clyde L. Moody was also injured.
