1.Architect Bob Berryman purchased a late model car from Fred's Ford dealership. Three months after he purchased the car, he had to replace two of the tires because he ran over nails at one of his construction sites. Fred's Ford replaced two of the tires, one of which was defective. The defective tire blew out while Bob was driving and caused an accident in which he was injured. Should Bob file a lawsuit using the theory of negligence or strict liability? What are the elements that Bob would need to identify to make the determination? Support the rationale for your answer with research from your textbook.
2.Review the Liebeck v. McDonald's Restaurants case in Chapter 6 of your textbook. Define the elements of negligence, and explain how the elements of negligence were proven in that case. In your opinion, do you agree with the amount of punitive damages awarded in that case? Why, or why not? Support the rationale for your opinion with research from your textbook or additional sources.
Your response should be at least 200 words in length for both question. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations. Any references or citations must be in APA style.
