Main Issues

The case holding that the driver did not neglect his duty of care as a driver in light of the principle of trust.

Summary of Judgment

As a driver of a vehicle in which the left and front of the two vehicles are straight along with the right-hand and left-hand turn signal, it cannot be said that it is reasonable for the pedestrian to trust that the pedestrian would not walk the crosswalk because the signal on the crosswalk is stopped on the opposite side while the signal on the crosswalk is red, and that the pedestrian should fulfill his/her duty of care because it is anticipated that it would not cut the crosswalk, and even if the driver was negligent in proceeding more than the speed without a license, such error cannot be deemed to have caused the accident.
