Question:

Black was looking to buy a quality used luxury vehicle. He found a 2016 Audi at Dexter’s Audi that met his needs. He examined the car on several occasions and took it for a couple of test drives. Discussions with Dexter’s salesperson, White, were productive, and Black and White were close to making a deal. Black wanted to have the car inspected by an expert mechanic before finally agreeing to buy it, so he asked to have the car over a long weekend so he could drive it further and complete the inspection. White agreed, but required Black to sign a draft agreement and pay a deposit on the purchase price. Black signed the document “subject to satisfactory inspection.” Black took the car, but before the inspection could be done, he encountered a deer on the highway. He swerved to avoid the deer, lost control, went off the road, and hit a tree at high speed. Black was not injured but the car was demolished. Was this a bailment situation? Who is responsible for the vehicle?
