Question:

James was driving a vehicle manufactured by a major automobile manufacturer. Accompanying him were his wife and two children. James accidently drove over a curb and crashed into the concrete base of a light pole while traveling at a speed of 25 miles per hour. Prior to the crash, James did not apply the vehicle’s brakes. James’s two children sustained injuries as a result of the crash. James believes the vehicle’s seatbelts were defectively designed for children. Therefore, when the vehicle crashed into the light pole, the seatbelts failed to safeguard his children. James plans to file a lawsuit against the automobile manufacturer that designed and manufactured the vehicle. Do you think James will be successful in pursuing his legal claims? Explain.
