CASE NO.

7
Caminos vs. People, 587 SCRA 348

FACTS:

ISSUE:
Whether Camino is liable for damages.

RULING:
All told, it must be needlessly emphasized that the measure of a motorist’s duty is such
care as is, under the facts and circumstances of the particular case, commensurate with
the dangers which are to be anticipated and the injuries which are likely to result from
the use of the vehicle, and in proportion to or commensurate with the peculiar risk
attendant on the circumstances and conditions in the particular case, the driver being
under the duty to know and to take into consideration those circumstances and factors
affecting the safe operation of the vehicle which would be open to ordinary observation.
