number of important *439 facts. However, viewing the testimony in the light most favorable to the plaintiff, the jury could have found as follows.
On the westerly side of the road is a berm of approximately 4 feet in width which falls off rather sharply a distance of approximately 3 feet into a 10 inch deep (wide?) drainage ditch (for the highway). Defendant owns a naptha plant which is located between 200 and 300 feet west of the place where the accident occurred. A 2 inch gas line runs from the plant down toward the road. The line is made up of various joints of pipe through which natural gas is transported from the plant in an easterly direction. A wooded area begins approximately 25 feet west of theroad. As the gas line emerges from the wooded area into a brushcleared area, the pipe line becomes visible because half of it is buried and half is above ground. About 5 to 6 feet from the edge of the road, the 2 inch gas line emerges from the ground and passes over the ditch about 2 feet above the bottom of the ditch and then follows the incline of the bank toward the road; as it nears the road it enters and passes through the ground under the road.
Ewing's truck, which was proceeding along Route 666 in a northerly direction, between midnight and 2 o'clock on the somewhat foggy morning of July 1, 1949, ran off the road and over the west berm and into the ditch
