    Tort Talk Episode 10: Auto Accidents

    In this episode, I finally discuss the quintessential personal injury case: motor vehicle accidents (and the choice of my intended background photo for Tort Talk!!).  Negligent drivers who breach their duty to keep a safe lookout, keep proper control of their vehicle and respect the rules of the road are everywhere causing catastrophic injuries--and sometimes they have no insurance!!
