1. These are two running-down actions brought by passengers in a small dual-purpose van against the driver and owner of a lorry with which that van was in collision. As the action is still continuing as to liability between the lorry parties and the owner of the van, I will make no comments on that aspect except to say that on the evidence I have heard, which I understand is the total evidence that will be called, I am quite satisfied that the lorry driver was at least to some extent negligent.
