The issue in this opinion is whether it is appropriate, in the context of an automobile negligence case, for plaintiff's counsel to question his client as to whether his vehicle was "totaled" as a result of the accident with defendant's vehicle. The court determined this was not an appropriate inquiry. Because the term "totaled" has a colloquial meaning and an objective meaning within the insurance industry, whether a car was totaled does not provide the jury with meaningful information with respect to the severity of the impact. Accordingly, any line of inquiry regarding whether a vehicle was totaled in an accident in the context of a personal injury action is irrelevant.
