Wonderlic Personnel Test Prep

Answer: C - Darlene can be liable for Plaintiff Paul’s injury. The major premise establishes that any driver who was negligent (that is, who had a duty and breached that duty) can be held liable if that negligence was the cause of the plaintiff’s injury. Since the minor premise states that Darlene’s negligence was within the category of negligence that caused Paul’s injury, Darlene can be liable. Answer A is incorrect because it does not state that Darlene can be liable. Answer B is incorrect because the issue is causation and (potential) liability, not negligence. Answer C is not correct because the issue is causation and (potential) liability, not Darlene’s defenses.
