Description

The opinion of the court was delivered by This action arose when Harry A. Ebeling's pickup truck struck the rear of a six-passenger automobile in which the plaintiff, Mary F. Tice, was a passenger. Tice alleged that the driver of the pickup truck, Ebeling, was negligent, and that General Motors Corporation (GM), the manufacturer of the Tice vehicle, was also negligent for failing to provide a head restraint for the front center seat of the six-passenger automobile. At the close of the plaintiff's evidence, the trial judge sustained GM's motion for a directed verdict. After the case was submitted, the jury attributed 100 per cent of the fault to Ebeling and awarded the plaintiff $9,100 as damages. Plaintiff appeals the trial court's directed verdict for GM and, in addition, claims that the damage [238 Kan. 705] award was inadequate as a matter of law and contrary to the evidence.
