The declaration further alleges that said patrolman was driving said truck in an easterly direction on said highway and immediately prior to the collision saw an Hlinois Power Company truck parked on the patrolman’s side of the concrete slab, and on account of the slab being covered with ice at this time and place, was unable to stop, and in attempting to avoid striking the Illinois Power Company truck turned to the left and collided with claimant’s automobile, hitting said automobile on the left rear side; that claimant drives his said automobile in the prosecution of his business on an average of 500 miles a week; that he was out the use of his said car for a period of 14 days; that the value of the loss of the use of said automobile during said time was $15.00 a day; that he spent the sum of $81.50 in making necessary repairs, and claims damages in the sum of $261.50.
