Issue:

David was negligently driving south on Cedar Avenue when his car rear-ended a car driven by Cindy. The force of the impact forced Cindy to rear-end Bob's car. In turn, the force of the second impact caused Bob's car to hit a lamppost, which then fell on a house owned by Peter. The force of the impact scared Peter, causing him to immediately have a heart attack. Peter sues David for negligence.Can Peter recover damages in negligence?(Explain your legal reasoning with specificity!)

(Hint: discuss 'causation' and consider 'proximate cause' and 'foreseeability'.)

Make a firm decision one way or the other (recovery or not) and explain your legal reasoning with specificity!
