An excellent legal contrivance addressing the state of affairs one would have been in had all been well in the world. It starts with “constructive knowledge”: knowledge a prudent chap ought to have had, had he stopped to think about it, when the historical record reveals he did not. This cognitive state which pays no heed to the brute facts of his imperfect existence, in which his Vauxhall Astra is unapologetically now wrapped around a lamp post he would have, in a perfect world, known was there and diligently avoided.
