If they had a contractual or common law duty of care to Montador (which they probably did) and didn't take proper care to fulfil that duty , it's a tort, which I guess you could call "illegal".
The guy running a red light is breaking a municipal statute and maybe the HTA. It's not a crime and it's not why he gets sued. He gets sued for exactly the same as the NHL - for breaching a common law duty of care.
That will be $100, please.
