Notes and Comments

Apparently,if you trace damages to an act causing it,it would look inevitable that the act must have been negligent.But the question of determining negligence,as Lord Judge Scrutton puts it,depends on “whether a reasonable person would foresee that the act would cause damage;if he would not the act is not negligent.” That question,a question of fact,should be decided by a jury,rather than by the court.(https://www.daowen.com)
