#T3BE 249 - Full Question Text for Patrons

Comments

Narrowing it down as I assume most will to C and D. I think that the driver could be liable for some foreseeable actions of a third party, ruling out D in favor of C. A possible example being that if the driver took someone into a rival gang’s territory, a shooting could be reasonably foreseeable and the driver held liable. Final answer C.

Damn why can't this be a contracts question instead of a torts question? Ok, so it's between C and D. I don't remember the standard for negligence but it has something to with failing to act as a reasonable person would have acted under the circumstances. But I think the standard for damages is whether the negligence was the proximate cause of the injury. And it just absurd to hold someone liable for the criminal acts of another. The driver in no way induced the thief to do what he did. Going D.
