Annie Mae ROBINSON and Willie Robinson, her husband, Appellants, v. Mayme E. MONAHAN and Paul Hamersmid, Appellees.
    No. 62-178.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida. Third District.
    Nov. 13, 1962.
    Gilbert & Young, Miami Beach, and Toby H. Hyman, Miami, for appellants.
    Fowler, White, Gillen, Humkey & Tre-nam and Kenneth L. Ryskamp, Wicker, Smith, Blomqvist, Hinckley & Davant and Anthony Reinert, Miami, for appellees.
    Before PEARSON, TILLMAN, C. J., and HORTON and CARROLL, JJ.
   PER CURIAM.

The trial judge correctly directed a verdict for the appellees because the evidence ■conclusively shows that the act of another constituted an independent, intervening, efficient cause of the accident which was not reasonably foreseeable. See Rawls v. Ziegler, Fla. 1958, 107 So.2d 601; Lingefelt v. Hanner, Fla.App.1960, 125 So.2d 325.

Affirmed.
