Negligent Driving
The word “negligence” is used in law to describe a situation in which someone behaves carelessly, thereby causing harm to another person. This becomes especially important in car accident cases, as negligence can lead to costly and even fatal damages. The law requires that drivers demonstrate a “duty of reasonable care” with every vehicle or pedestrian they meet on the road.
