Shortly after eight o’clock on Saturday morning, July 1, 1967, a car in which the plaintiff was a passenger was involved in a collision with a car driven by the defendant’s employee and struck a post supporting an elevated railway. The plaintiff was hurled through the front windshield and sustained personal injuries for which this action was brought. At trial the plaintiff waived counts against the defendant’s employee and against the owner of the car the defendant’s employee was driving, and the jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff in the amount of $30,000 on the remaining count.1
