Patrick borrowed his friend John’s car to impress a young lady he was dating. It was a new luxury car that John had saved four y

ears to purchase. The paint on the car turned colors under various climatic and light conditions. While on the date, Patrick drove the car down a public road that had just been repaved with hot oil and gravel. The result was streaks of hot oil glued to the sides of the car and several nicks in the paint from flying rocks. Patrick then parked in front of his favorite restaurant, a sports pub on the far side of town. While in the restaurant, Patrick heard a special weather report that a thunderstorm with large hail was sweeping across the area and would arrive over the restaurant in ten minutes. Unfortunately for John’s car, the date was going too well to break off and move the car under cover. Consequently, the hail left a multitude of pock marks on the top of the car. Is Patrick legally responsible for the damage done by the gravel, oil, and hail? Why or why not?

Patrick <em>would</em> be liable for negligence in <em>allowing</em> the hail damage, as he <em>failed</em> to fulfill his duty of taking reasonable care of the vehicle.

However, he would<em> not</em> be responsible for the hot oil and gravel nicks.

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

It is TRUE that to define an act  as deviant is to make a subjective judgment, but it can be objectively determined that all deviant acts have a negative impact on the moral standards of a society.

Explanation:

Deviant behaviors, or deviant acts in society refer to behavior that violate social norms and expectations. Deviance can be something as small as dressing in gothic clothing, or something as serious as burning someone's house down.

Morals are the prevailing standards of behavior that enable people to live cooperatively in groups. Moral refers to what societies sanction as right and acceptable. Most people tend to act morally and follow societal guidelines. Morality describes the particular values of a specific group at a specific point in time.
