Diaz v. Carcamo (2011): Karen Tagliaferri drove into Dawn Renae Diaz's SUV as Tagliaferri tried to pass Jose Carcamo, who is a truck driver working for Sugar Transport of the Northwest LLC. Tagliaferri pulled into Carcamo's lane without using a turn signal. Carcamo never changed speed. Diaz suffered severe and permanent injuries. During the trial, evidence was presented of Carcamo's prior driving history of dangerous driving behavior, which was knowable at the time that Sugar Transport hired Carcamo.

Suppose that Plaintiff Diaz sues Sugar Transport under a rule of joint and several liability. Discuss the economic incentives associated with the Plaintiff suing only Sugar Transport. Suppose instead that Plaintiff Diaz sues Tagliaferri, Carcamo, and Sugar Transport under a rule of joint liability. Discuss the economic incentives associated with the Plaintiff suing all three parties. Also why could there be punitive damages?
