DAUKSCH, Chief Judge.
This is an appeal from a judgment in a personal injury suit. Because we find the trial judge erred in directing a verdict for the defendant when there was evidence at trial which could have supported a verdict against the defendant we must reverse the judgment and remand this case for a new trial. Hernandez v. Motrico, Inc., 370 So. 2d 836 (Fla.3d DCA 1979); Laird v. Potter, 367 So. 2d 642 (Fla.3d DCA), cert. denied, 378 So. 2d 347 (Fla.1979); Newsome v. St. Paul Fire and Marine Insurance Co., 350 So. 2d 825 (Fla.2d DCA 1977). This decision applies to both reasons given by the trial judge in his order directing a verdict. We find no error in the judge’s order denying the motion in limine regarding the blood alcohol test results.
REVERSED AND REMANDED.
