Mrs. Patricia Biggers v. Continental Bus System, Incorporated

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court reversed the Court of Civil Appeals, holding that the excessive speed of Continental Bus System's bus was a proximate cause of the collision and remanded for further proceedings. The Court emphasized that appellate review of proximate cause must consider evidence in the light most favorable to the jury findings. The opinion was contested by two dissenting opinions that argued the bus driver’s speed was not a proximate cause.
