May 1, 1991
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Molloy, J.).
Ordered that the order is reversed insofar as appealed from, on the law, without costs or disbursements, the motion is granted, the complaint is dismissed insofar as it is asserted against the appellant, and the action against the remaining defendants is severed.
The evidence including the deposition testimony of the only survivor of a one-car collision, indicates that the plaintiff's decedent died upon an impact which occurred within seconds after the car left the road. Since the plaintiff did not dispute before Supreme Court the immediacy of the death, and seeks recovery only for his decedent's conscious pain and suffering, and since the record demonstrates there was none, the motion for summary judgment should have been granted (see, Scheu v High-Forest Corp., 129 A.D.2d 366; cf., Wittman v Gilson, 120 A.D.2d 964, affd 70 N.Y.2d 970; Anderson v Rowe, 73 A.D.2d 1030). Brown, J.P., Kunzeman, Harwood and Rosenblatt, JJ., concur.
