HAROLD L. LOWENSTEIN, JUDGE The plaintiffs' appeal from a jury verdict and judgment for the City of Kansas City in a wrongful death claim arising out of a two-car, head-on accident on Stark Avenue in Kansas City, Missouri. The plaintiffs are the surviving parents of two teenage boys who died as a result of the accident. In this suit they claimed the accident was caused by the dangerous condition of a city road, Stark Avenue. Kansas City controls and maintains the street and right of way where the accident occurred. The speed limit on Stark is 25 miles an hour. It is a rural, two-lane paved road. It is approximately 20 feet wide without a shoulder and has a steep depression on the west side of the roadway. The roadway where the accident occurred is straight and hilly.
