Answer:

Assumption of the risk

Explanation:

Assumption of the risk is a good defense to recklessness. It is a legal term used to describe when a person is prohibited from recovering damages for an injury that he or she sustained when he or she exposed him/herself willingly to a known danger.

An example is when a person sign a waiver before using a horse in a horse ranch or before entering a motorbike race.

It holds the view that the said individual understand and knows the risks when doing or embarking on a dangerous action and it applies so as to prevent the injured party from holding someone else accountable for their injuries they had sustained for they knew the risk involved.
