Question 2

Bestblast Co is the industry leader in blasting holes through mountains so roadways can be constructed. Known for using the utmost care in conducting its operations, the company has the safest record in the business, with by far the fewest incidents of injuries from blasting reported. One day, while conducting blasting activities to widen an existing thoroughfare, the plaintiff is injured when a dislodged rock hits his car as he drives past the construction site. Is Bestblast Co strictly liable for the harm suffered by the plaintiff? Why or why not?
