PER CURIAM.

Appellant was convicted of "colliding" and of "leaving after colliding" in violation of the Traffic and Motor Vehicle Regulations.

His contention on this appeal is that the court improperly limited his counsel in his cross-examination of the government's witnesses.

We have carefully examined the record and cannot say there was any abuse of discretion in this connection.

Affirmed.
