dangerous instrumentality

Read a random definition: Court of Earl Marshal

A quick definition of dangerous instrumentality:

A dangerous instrumentality is something that is so dangerous that it can cause serious injury or death without anyone using it. It can be used as a reason to hold someone responsible for any harm caused by it. A deadly weapon is something that is designed to hurt or kill someone, and can cause serious injury or death. A concealed weapon is something that someone carries with them that is not visible to others. A weapon of mass destruction is something that is meant to kill many people at once, like a nuclear bomb or chemical weapon.

A more thorough explanation:

Dangerous instrumentality refers to an object, substance, or situation that is so inherently dangerous that it can cause serious bodily harm or death without any human interference. It can be used as a basis for strict liability, which means that the person responsible for the dangerous instrumentality can be held liable for any harm caused, even if they were not directly involved in the incident.

  • A loaded gun
  • A poisonous chemical
  • A live electrical wire
  • A vicious dog

These examples illustrate the definition of dangerous instrumentality because they are all capable of causing serious harm or death without any human intervention. For example, a loaded gun can accidentally discharge and injure or kill someone, even if no one is handling it at the time. Similarly, a poisonous chemical can cause harm if it is spilled or released into the environment, even if no one intentionally ingests it.
