Questions
Teel аnd his wife were driving westbоund оn а remоte section of Highwаy 46 when they collided with a car driven by Finney, in which his wife was a passenger. All four were killed, and no eyewitness saw the accident. The cars collided at the intersection of the highway and a county road, and the police officer who examined the scene concluded that the Finney vehicle was entering the highway from the north and was in the process of turning left (eastward) when it was struck. Teel’s estate sues Finney’s estate for wrongful death. The police officer testified about the scene, and the court allows him to give his opinion as an expert in accident reconstruction on the probable speed and positions of the cars at the time of impact. Because the accident looked like one that could happen only if one of the two drivers was at fault, and because there was no direct proof on this point, Teel’s estate sought to prove that Teel was exercising due care. Teel’s estate called witnesses Budge and Frese, who are prepared to testify that they knew Teel for over twenty years and that he was “a good, careful driver.” Finney’s estate objects that the proffered evidence “is just proof of character, which cannot be admitted to show conduct on a particular occasion.” Teel’s estate argues that Budge and Frese’s testimony on this point should be admitted as “evidence of habit under FRE 406.” How should the judge rule?
