A quick definition of concurrent cause:

Concurrent cause is when two or more things happen at the same time and both contribute to a result. For example, if a car accident happens because one driver was texting and another driver ran a red light, both drivers could be considered concurrent causes of the accident. It's important to figure out all the concurrent causes of an event to determine who is responsible and who should be held accountable.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A concurrent cause is one of two or more causes that simultaneously produce a result.

Example: A car accident occurs due to both the driver's negligence and a malfunctioning traffic light. In this case, both the driver's negligence and the malfunctioning traffic light are concurrent causes of the accident.

This definition explains that a concurrent cause is when two or more causes work together to produce a result. In the example given, the car accident was caused by both the driver's negligence and the malfunctioning traffic light. Without either of these causes, the accident may not have occurred. This term is important in legal cases where it is necessary to determine who or what is responsible for a particular outcome.
