No. B should not be held liable for damages in favor of A.

Under the established doctrine of last clear chance, a person who had the last opportunity to avoid an accident, shall be the negligent party and shall be held liable for any damages.

In this case, it is established that A is tailgating B’s car when the accident happened. So since tailgating is greatly discouraged on highways, A cannot put the blame on B for bumping B’s car. Under the last clear chance doctrine, A had the last opportunity to avoid the accident if he was not tailgating B’s car. Furthermore, the sudden break made by B, is not a negligent act since a man was crossing the road when he did it, and if he did not do so, he could’ve cause that man an accident.

Therefore, B should not be held liable for damages in favor of A.

A was driving his car along the highway of EDSA. The traffic was very congested so the cars were tail to tail with each other. B, who was also driving a car and who was in front of A had to step on his break quickly when a man suddenly crossed the highway when he alighted a passenger jeepney. With that, A bumped into B’s car. A, demanded for damages against B since he argued that because of the sudden breaks, he bumped into B’s car while the traffic. was moving.

Question: May B be held liable for damages in favor of A? (10%)
