Assignment:
Question 1. Kevin is driving in a heavily populated, suburban part of Kansas in one of those tiny, little electric cars, and a sudden burst of 70mph wind thrusts him into a tattered, rotting and dilapidated older telephone pole that breaks in half and falls on a nearby pedestrian causing serious injury to pedestrian. The telephone company ("Telco") has not modified the poles in 20 years and the only factor when the telephone company purchased the poles was low cost. The pedestrian sues the telephone company for negligence. What is the likely result and key legal issues involved in your legal analysis?
