I watch court shows on TV all the time, and there's one of these cases every month, and it always goes like this:
1 -Car was speeding - Every plaintiff says the car was speeding, and every defendent says no, they were only going 5 mph..
2- Street was located in a mobile home park -Doesn't matter, there is usually a local leash law, and they do not exempt mobile home parks.
3 -Dog ran into street -Sounds like dog was not on a leash
4 -People dont think it was there fault -If the dog is NOT on a leash, they're right, they're not at fault
Also, I've seen defendents countersue for damages to their cars and win. Hope the car didn't get dented.
