1Opinion of the CourtPolen, J.

This is a negligence action against the School Board of Broward County (School Board), arising from serious injuries that Glenice Petit-Dos (Petit-Dos) sustained when, upon exiting the school bus, a pickup truck struck her as she sought to cross the street. At the time of the collision, Petit-Dos was an eighteen year old, deaf student. Petit-Dos is appealing the final judgment finding the School Board twenty percent negligent. We affirm, concluding that the trial court properly listed Antwan Snell on the verdict form, and that the erroneous evidentiary ruling at trial was a harmless error.
