Which of the following are three types of torts?

The classification of torts is primarily divided into three main types: intentional torts, negligence torts, and strict liability torts.

Intentional torts occur when a person deliberately acts in a way that causes harm to another person. Examples include assault, battery, and defamation. These involve a purposeful act and a clear intention to cause harm.

Negligence torts arise when a person's failure to act with reasonable care results in harm to another person. This might include car accidents stemming from careless driving or medical malpractice resulting from a doctor’s lack of attention to a patient’s needs.

Strict liability torts do not depend on intentionality or negligence but instead hold a party liable for damages caused by their actions, regardless of intent or care exercised. This often applies in cases involving inherently dangerous activities or defective products.

The mention of liability in the first option could cause some confusion since liability typically refers to the legal responsibility arising from tortious acts, rather than being a standalone type of tort. However, the other elements in this choice correctly highlight two of the three foundational tort categories.

When differentiating these from the other options, civil, criminal, and administrative refer to broader categories of law rather than specifically to torts. Contractual torts
