The appellant challenged the dismissal of a personal injury action arising from a bicycle fall followed by a truck running over his hand.
The appeal raised alleged misstatements in the jury charge, admissibility and pre-trial disclosure of post-accident statements, treatment of accident reconstruction opinion evidence, adequacy of Highway Traffic Act instructions, and the reasonableness of the jury verdict.
The court held that any alleged misstatement was immaterial, the challenged statements were properly left to the jury, no disclosure or pleading obligation had been established, and the expert evidence was properly limited where the subject matter was within ordinary experience.
The jury verdict and trial costs disposition were upheld, and the appeal was dismissed with costs.
