AUTOMOBILES AND MOTOR VEHICLES, § 166.3 — jury's disregard of court's instruction concerning damages as grounds for new trial. In action to recover damages for personal injuries resulting to plaintiff while riding in one of defendant's taxicabs, where court instructed jury that plaintiff would be entitled to have damages assessed for pain and suffering sustained as result of injury if defendant was found guilty, and it appeared that jury disregarded such instruction and rendered verdict only in amount of expenses actually incurred by plaintiff for medical and dental treatment, held that question of damages should be submitted to another jury.
