Sometimes, Determining Liability and Calculating Damage is UnclearPatricia is walking on the street. David is driving down the same
street, when Donovan, his prankster friend in the passenger seat – for no good reason – screams, “Look out!” This scares David who reacts by turning the wheel of his car, and runs over Patricia’s foot, crushing it.
Q1: Who is liable/at fault (consider David, Donovan and Patricia)Q2: How much is Patricia’s foot worth?
Assume doctors fee + anesthesiologist fee + surgical-center costs = $20,000.00
Q3: Does the answer change if Patricia was on the track team?Q4: What if Patricia was planning on paying for college on a track
scholarship?Q5: What about Pain & Suffering?

Pain & Suffering Damages• Human foot has 26 bones and over 100 different muscles,
ligaments and tendons. • 50% of patients who undergo foot surgery (due to a crush
injury) report complications, residual pain and require assisted ambulation for the foreseeable future. • Neurological injuries• Difficulty bearing weight• Disfiguration
What about not being able to wearsandals?
