On a Sunday morning, Kris, driving a red Mazda, was travelling within the speed limit on Lengkop Street. As she approached an intersection with Merbau Avenue, Kris noticed a green light but was aware that the traffic light was known to change quickly.

At the same time, Kevin, driving a blue truck, was travelling on Merbau Avenue and had the right of way. Kevin was speeding, and he did not notice the traffic light change from green to yellow as he entered the intersection.

Kris, seeing Kevin’s vehicle approaching at high speed, attempted to brake but couldn’t stop in time and collided with Kevin’s truck in the intersection. Both vehicles are damaged, and both drivers sustained minor injuries.

Advise Kevin if he has a case against Kris under the tort of negligence, and consider Kris’s possible defence(s).
