11. The Hon'ble Supreme Court has defined rashness/negligence as in Mohammed Aynuddin @ Miyan Vs State of Andhra Pradesh, 2000 AIR (SC) 2511.

Still a rash act can be a deliberate act in the sense that it was done without due care and caution. Culpable rashness lies in running the risk of doing an act with recklessness and with indifference as to the consequences. Criminal negligence is the failure to exercise duty with reasonable and proper care and precaution guarding against injury to the public generally or to any individual in particular. It is the imperative duty of the driver of a vehicle to adopt such reasonable and proper care and precaution".
