Liability for dog caused car crashes and strict duty
A motorist who swerved to avoid a dog and crashed may claim damages from the dog owner under strict liability in some states, or for negligence if the owner failed to restrain a known dangerous dog. Courts assess whether the dog caused the accident or if the driver’s own driving was primarily at fault. Cases show liability where the dog’s actions were the proximate cause, but not when the driver would have stayed on the road anyway.
