Defendant is appealing from a denial of her motions for directed verdict and for judgment notwithstanding the verdict in a case involving an automobile collision where a verdict in the amount of $1,000 was found for plaintiff by a jury in the common pleas court for the city of Detroit.
Conflicting testimony was offered at the trial as to the details of the collision. The facts surrounding the accident were properly considered and evaluated by the jury and merit no further review by this Court. Defendant has raised the following 4 issues on appeal:
(1) Should the trial court have granted defendant’s motion for directed verdict or for judgment notwithstanding the verdict?
(2) Should the evidence that a traffic ticket was issued defendant for an improper right turn have been held admissible?
(3) Should the question of the admissibility of the traffic ticket have been discussed in the presence of the jury?
(4) Did the investigating police officer have personal knowledge concerning the accident to permit him to testify about the issuance of the traffic ticket ?
We are first asked to find that the trial court erred in denying the motion for directed verdict
*84
and for judgment notwithstanding the verdict. The question is whether there is sufficient evidence of negligence and contributory negligence for the trial court to deny defendant’s motion and submit the issue to the jury. This Court has held in the case of
Killen
v.
Benton
(1965),
The test to follow in negligence cases is well settled. If reasonable men can honestly reach different conclusions from the facts offered at the trial, then the question of liability is properly left to the determination of the jury. What conduct constitutes negligence toward the well-being of others, and what conduct is proper for one’s own well-being, are questions of fact best left to the province of the jury in the light of the evidence adduced at the trial. See
Ingram
v.
Henry
(1964),
Appellant, in his review of the transcript on this point, contends that, because the trial judge admittedly found only a “slight question of fact” for the jury, there were no questions of fact at all. We examine the record to dispose of this issue and find that reasonable minds could disagree on at least 2 issues raised in the testimony offered by the plaintiff’s proofs, to wit:
(1) Perhaps defendant could have seen plaintiff’s car from her location, considering the final resting positions of the 2 automobiles, in time to avoid the collision, as elicited from the plaintiff’s proofs.
(2) Since defendant admitted that a traffic ticket had been issued to her and the investigating officer *85 testified as to what lie observed upon arriving’ at the scene of the accident, there is a question as to defendant’s negligence.
Reasonable minds could differ and a prima facie case of negligence is established. In addition, judgment notwithstanding the verdict is not given without viewing the evidence from a point most favorable to the party against whom the motion was made.
Killen
v.
Benton, supra,
quoting with approval the language in
Dismukes
v.
Michigan Express, Inc.,
(1962),
Defendant admitted, during cross-examination, that she was issued a ticket. No evidence was ever introduced that she had been
convicted
of a traffic violation; this is forbidden by CLS 1961, § 257.731 (Stat Ann 1960 Rev § 9.2431). The remaining issue then is whether defendant’s admission should have been excluded by the trial court on its own motion in the absence of an objection by. defendant’s counsel at that time. In fact, counsel for defendant stated 3 times that it was
proper
for the court to-receive defendant’s statement as to the issuance of the ticket, citing the court to the case of
Dudek
v.
Popp
(1964),
*86 In addition, we refer to a cardinal rule of trial procedure as concerns Michigan appellate courts:
“Our Supreme Court presumes evidence admitted was lawfully admitted where no proper objections were made at the trial.” People v. Jury (1966),3 Mich App 427 , 435.
Let us add that where evidence is admitted with the urging and approval of counsel, the contention by the same counsel that its admission was improper will not be heard on appeal.
The related question of whether there was error in permitting the jury to listen to the arguments concerning the admissibility of the evidence relating to the issuance of the traffic ticket must also be resolved against appellant on the same ground. Counsel’s objection came before Mrs. Johnson answered regarding the disposal of the traffic ticket in court and his objection was sustained by the trial court as to any further testimony being elicited from Mrs. Johnson on these grounds. We do not find that defendant was prejudiced by having the objection upheld, as no evidence of a conviction was introduced in the presence of the jury.
The investigating police officer also testified that he personally examined the accident site and that another police officer signed the violation notice issued to defendant. We do not find from the record any objection made at the trial to the testimony of the officer regarding his investigations. Instead, appellant urges that because the officer testified that he did not personally sign the traffic violation, he should not have been permitted to testify at all. However, we cite the cases of
Bliss

(1963),
