Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

• When a bus driver was charged at Chester-le-Street, Co Durham, with driving without due care and attention, his solicitor, Mr W. Kilner, criticized the man's employers, the Northern General Transport Co Ltd. It was stated that the driver, John Bell, was reversing his bus in accordance with company rules at Blackvell Village when he backed into a car. Since the accident, the company had changed its rules and buses now enter and leave the area by a circular route. The defence claimed that the fault lay with the employers. The case was dismissed.
