Which of the following is an element of strict liability in Tort?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Strict liability does not require the claimant to prove the defendant’s fault or breach of a duty of care. It can arise from the relevant escape even where reasonable care was taken, subject to the rule’s exceptions. No-fault therefore describes this form of liability; it does not mean that every harmful event automatically creates liability.
