Legally Fond

The Not So Smooth Criminal

Gavin Dowd, Pierce O'Meara, Alex MacDonnell Season 3 Episode 7

We discuss the case of a man who left his car unattended on Dublin's Talbot Street with the engine running. The car was subsequently stolen and collided with a pedestrian. The injured pedestrian sued the owner of the car for his negligence in leaving the car open and running on a busy city street. But was it foreseeable that the car thief would drive so carelessly as to hit a pedestrian?
