Chapter 5 - Negligence. Ronald Rawls and Zabian Bailey were in an auto accident in Bridgeport, Connecticut. Bailey rear-ended Rawls at a stoplight. The evidence showed that Bailey had failed to apply his brakes in time to avoid the collision, failed to turn his vehicle to avoid the collision, failed to keep his vehicle under control, and was inattentive to his surroundings. Because Bailey's auto insurance did not cover all of the costs, Rawls filed a suit in a Connecticut state court against his own insurance company, Progressive Northern Insurance Co. Rawls wanted to obtain benefits under an underinsured motorist clause. Rawls claimed that Bailey had been negligent. Could Rawls collect from Progressive because of Bailey's negligence? Discuss.
