    The clarity is amazing in this video. I learned more watching this than I did in the first tort lecture from my introduction to business law at my university, and that was an hour and 15 minute long lecture...

    I had to take a tort law class in 1985 as part of a Data Processing course I was taking. I was surprised at how much about law I already knew but didn't know it. We had cases to discuss and I was always correct as to what the outcome should be. I was also one of two guys in the class. One morning one of the ladies asked me why/how I got all the cases right. I told her that when it comes to matters of law you have to think with your head not your heart. The teacher agreed. My journey in understanding law started on active duty trying to figure out how the Uniform Code of Military Justice(UCMJ) works and how to make it work for me. I have been sued twice and both cases were dismissed. My company's assigned vehicle was hit while being legally parked in front of my house. What they did not know was while on active duty one of my duties was to photograph accidents. The second guy who sued I'm thinking did it intentionally. He also wanted to be reimbursed for medical bills. He did not realize I had pics of him lifting a heavy case from the car trunk and walking around uninjured and not in any distress. He even left the scene in someone's personal vehicle not by ambulance. The vehicle was whomever he called to come get him. According to the lawyers my company had, with my pictures, accident report, diagram he didn't have too much of a leg to stand on. Federal law/regulations require a certain amount of light reflecting markers/tape. I had more than the requirements but they did not see a vehicle that requires 13'6" by 8'6" clearance?
