dc.description	Like most lawyers, I first came across the doctrine of vicarious liability in tort as a student. I found it somewhat of an oddity: a principle of strict liability in an area of law dominated by fault, notably the tort of negligence. Vicarious liability seemed to be the cuckoo in the nest; imposing liability without fault on innocent parties (usually employers) regardless of their attempts to exercise reasonable care.	en_US
