The county responded that the accident was caused by Pohl’s own negligent driving. The case was tried to the court which found both parties*fn1 negligent, apportioning 60% of the negligence to the county and 40% to Pohl, and awarding Pohl $407,163.68 in damages. The county appeals, and Pohl cross appeals. We affirm.
