OPINION

DONNELLY, Chief Judge.

This is an appeal in a comparative negligence action. Defendant seeks review of a judgment of the district court entered after a bench trial, wherein plaintiff was awarded damages after he was injured by defendant’s automobile. Three issues are presented on appeal: (1) whether the trial court’s findings that defendant was negligent are supported by substantial evidence; (2) whether the court erred in failing to adopt specific findings of fact regarding the comparative negligence of the parties; and (3) whether the court erred in its award of damages.
