H. Bagley, superintendent of the Montgomery City Lines, Inc., in which he states that by reason of the damage to the bus sustained in said collision, and the time necessary to repair the same, the Montgomery City Lines lost the use of said bus for å period of 51 days; that the sum of $40 per day is the reasonable value of the use of said bus and the reasonable rental value of such a bus; that said value was arrived at in the following manner: That where the Montgomery City Lines charters or rents a bus to someone else they charge a rental based on mileage at the rate of 30 cents a mile; that the bus in question was on a route traveling 185 • miles per day, which would give a gross rental for such bus of $55.50; that when such a bus is rented by the Montgomery City Lines to a third party the Montgomery City Lines furnishes a driver, and furnishes gas and oil, and that the expense of two drivers and expense of gas and oil would amount to $17.60, or a net rental of such a bus where rented by the Montgomery City Lines to another party of $37.90 per day; that there are no similar busses in Montgomery which the Montgomery City Lines could rent from another party, but in the opinion of Mr. Bagley such bus if available would require a rental of at least $10 per day; that he, Mr. Bagley, did not attempt to set the rental value of $40 upon the intake of that particular bus, but upon the rental value; that on the run on which this bus was being used, there was a gross intake of an average of slightly more than $40, or a net intake on that line of $22.40; that under its franchise the Montgomery City Lines was required to furnish a specified number of busses on said run, and that the damage to the Montgomery City Lines could not, therefore, be computed by the intake from the operation of that bus, but would have to be computed on the rental value of another bus. Mr. Bagley made the following further statement in his affidavit in explanation of the time required in repairing the bus, and in putting it in condition for resumption of its regular run: That representatives of the United States Army requested that the bus be held in its wrecked condition until Army officials could complete its investigation, which caused delay of a day or two during which such officials examined the bus; that upon completion of examination of the bus by Army officials, the Montgomery City Lines endeavored to secure bids from garages and repair shops in Montgomery for the repair of said bus, but was unable to secure satisfactory bids, and it became necessary for the Montgomery City Lines to make the repairs to the bus itself; that the record kept of mechanics' time working on said bus shows that mechanics started to work on said bus on October 9, 1940; |
