## Opinion text

Me. Justice Mestbezat,
dissenting:
For the reasons stated in the dissenting opinion in Hunterson v. Traction Co., 205 Pa. 568 , I cannot concur with the majority of the court in holding “ that to get on or off a moving car, whether propelled by steam or electricity, is negligence per se in him who attempts it,” and, therefore, I dissent from the judgment reversing the court below.
