Questions to consider
To deepen your understanding, you are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of the business community.
• Should the owner of a car be liable to a thief for the thief's injuries, if the stolen car has no brakes?
• Does someone watching a person being robbed have a duty to help the person being robbed?
• Should a person who has been careless be liable for all damage caused by his or her carelessness, or should there be limits?
• Should courts always punish companies that have been careless by awarding large amounts of money to those who have been injured?
• Are there situations where companies should be liable to those who have been injured, even if the company has not been careless?
• Tort law permeates society and daily life. Think of a tort issue in your life or in the life of someone close to you. Perhaps you did not pursue litigation, but considering your knowledge of tort law, do you think you should have? Perhaps you pursued litigation and lost. Is it clear why you lost? Specifically, identify the elements of the tort cause of action and apply facts to each element. If the case is not clear cut, it will probably be because an element of a cause of action is not clearly met. If an element of a cause of action is clearly not met, there is not a legitimate cause of action.
