Answer:

No, because the delivery van striking the trooper was the actual cause of his injuries.

Explanation:

The state trooper will not prevail against the tractor trailer driver. This is because tractor trailer was not the actual cause for the injuries of the trooper. It was the deliver van which skid on the icy road and hit the trooper and which made him injured.

It was when the trooper went to respond to the accident of the tractor trailer that the delivery van approached the icy bridge and strike the trooper.

Thus the answer is No.

What term describes the local currents that flow parallel to a shore and transport sediment?
ad-work [718]

A current that runs parallel to the beach in the area where waves break is known as a longshore current. When waves hit a beach at an angle, longshore currents form. Longshore drift is the term for the transfer of silt by longshore currents.

Longshore drift is the flow of sediments along a coastline caused by waves that come in at an angle to the shore before reversing course and moving straight away. In a "sheet-like" arrangement, water in a longshore current moves up the beach before returning to the ocean. This sheet of water can carry beach sand back out to sea as it passes over and off the beach. As the longshore current sweeps down current, floating objects move up and down the beach in a zigzag manner.
