Gertie was sitting on her porch when she saw William, a person who lived down the street from her whom she occasionally spoke to, walking by, texting on his phone. William turned towards the street, not paying attention to his surroundings. Gertie saw he was about to walk into the path of an oncoming truck but did not warn him and watched as he was hit by the truck and flew through the air. William was badly injured and sued Gertie. What is the likely result
