Explanation:
The meaning if contributory negligence is a type of law whereby if a plaintiff ( the accuser) has been found to have 10%, fault at cause will gave nothing to recover even if the defendant has 90% at fault.
From the above question, the street crosser as just a little fault to the accident which is crossing the street that is very dangerous without considering the options, whether a car is approaching or not and the defendant has about 95% fault because if he was driving at a controlled speed, there is every chance that he would have controlled the situation. But been the fact that state B is a contributory negligence state, based on my explanation of negligence state, it is possible for the defendant to win the case. As a lawyer I will advise the driver to go on with his defense that the plantif is more at fault.
