What is the test for a factfinder to make a reasonable judgment in a motor vehicle case?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Edrei v. Maguire, 892 F.3d 525 (2nd Cir. 2018):

Finally, we emphasize that when viewing the evidence from the perspective of a reasonable officer a factfinder must afford "ample room for mistaken judgments." Malley v. Briggs , 475 U.S. 335, 343, 106 S.Ct. 1092, 89 L.Ed.2d 271 (1986). This is particularly true where officers "have obligations that tend to tug against each other." Lewis , 523 U.S. at 853, 118 S.Ct. 1708.
