Negligence Liability

Negligence liability refers to a legal concept where a person or entity is held responsible for harm caused by their failure to act with reasonable care. For example, if a driver neglects to stop at a red light and causes an accident, they can be held liable for the injuries or damages resulting from that accident. To establish negligence, it must be shown that the responsible party had a duty of care, breached that duty, and that the breach directly resulted in harm to another person. This principle helps ensure accountability and safety in society.
