Answer:

I believe the correct answer is option (B) One person sues another for damage to the vehicle from their car accident.

Step-by-step explanation:

A Civil matter involves a person bringing an action against another person for a wrong committed to his person or property which results in damage. It could also involve a dispute between two or more persons over a property. In a civil matter, the person who institutes an action is called "Plaintiff(s)" while the person against whom the action is brought is known as the "Defendant(s). A civil action may arise where there is a breach of a contractual duty.

For better clarity, a person can unlawfully enter the property of another person to use or do something. Thus, the affected person can bring an action of trespass against such a person. Other examples of a Civil case are, Negligence, Child custody, Divorce, Assault/Battery, etc. It is important to note that what the plaintiff claim are reliefs, such as damages, specific performance, injunction depending on the issue. The above option involves negligence.
