WILKIE, J.

Four issues of descending importance are raised on this appeal. They are:

(1) Whether there is any credible evidence to support the jury finding that plaintiff was causally negligent.

(2) Whether there is ample credible evidence to support the jury finding that the causal negligence of plaintiff was greater than that of defendant's insured.

(3) Whether the damage award of $8,000 for permanent back injuries was inadequate.
