Sam and John drank beer and watched the Olympics for hours. When John left, he did not feel impaired, but the alcohol in his system affected his driving. He lost control of his car, which crashed through Mr. Mitsu's fence and into Mr. Mitsu's garage. Mitsu's neighbour, Mr. Watson, called the police. John was charged with driving while impaired and was found guilty in criminal proceedings. Given these facts, which of the following is true?

▸ Because John was charged with an offence, Mitsu cannot sue him in a civil action for compensation. One court action is all that is allowed.

▸ Since no one was physically injured, there could be no civil action.

▸ If Mitsu sued John, he would be entitled only to punitive damages.

▸ Watson, the neighbour, could sue John for negligence.

▸ Mitsu could sue John for negligence.
