The article argues that the concept of duty of care in negligence law has become confusing and inconsistent. It defends a new approach that sees duty of care as a responsibility owed to everyone, not just a specific group. This idea is based on the belief that each person has the right to act freely while considering the safety of others. By viewing duty of care as a general obligation, it simplifies how rights and responsibilities are established between individuals. This approach aims to make it easier to navigate the complex interactions where people may unintentionally harm each other while pursuing their own interests.
