A person driving over the prescribed speed limit in a suburban area hits and injures a pedestrian jaywalking against a red "Do Not Walk" sign. The jury finds that the driver holds 80 percent of the responsibility for the accident and the jaywalker holds 20 percent of the responsibility. The pedestrian suffered $100,000 in injuries. If the state in which this case is heard adopts the doctrine of contributory negligence to interpret such cases, the pedestrian is entitled to recover

no damages from the driver.

Explanation:

In common law, he doctrine of contributory negligence establishes that if a person is injured by another party, but the injured person had some degree of responsibility or contribution to the incident that caused his/her injury, then the injured is not allowed to collect any money from the party that caused the injury.

In this case, since the pedestrian is responsible for 20% of the accident, then he/she cannot collect any money from the driver or the driver's insurance.
