Question text
One of the attractions at Wonderland Zoo is a train ride that takes customers to and from
different locations at the zoo. Sipho, the technician in charge of inspecting and maintaining the
train, overlooks some signs that the train is no longer in sound condition. Avril goes for a ride on
the train. The operator of the train requests the persons boarding the train to fasten their safety
belts. However, Avril decides not to fasten her safety belt, because she wants to take good
selfie pictures during the ride. During the ride, the train breaks down and comes to an abrupt
standstill resulting in only Avril being thrown out of the train. Avril sustains a broken arm and is
hospitalised. After four days, Avril is discharged, but on her way out of the hospital, she slips
and falls as a result of some oily substance on the floor. Due to the fall, Avril sustains a broken
leg. Whether there was a legal causal link between Sipho’s conduct and Avril’s broken leg, will
be determined with reference to:
a.
Direct consequences.
b.
Adequate causation.
c.
The flexible approach.
d.
The but for-test.
