Nope... The passenger's actions are their own ! If they choose to open the door of a moving vehicle - they are responsible for their own injuries !
Yes. If the passenger is hurt in an accident caused by the driver, the passenger is fully entitled to sue the driver. In fact even if the passenger is a spouse of the driver, the passenger can sue.
Both the Driver and the Owner are liable for the damages. The driver, whether licensed or not is the primarily liable party. The insured passenger owner is secondarily liable for damages by the unlicensed driver he permitted to operate his vehicle.
Driver - The driver is what casued the incident. Even so, while exiting, person becomes pedestrian, not a passenger
The driver and the owner is liable.
it would be the driver/owner of the vehicle...the insurance (assuming there is ins) on the vehicle would be liable for the repair to the fence assuming of course that the driver of the vehicle had the owners permission to drive subject to any exclusions in the policy
Who else do you think should be held liable?
Yes he is do the crime pay the consequences
The owner of the vehicle is going to be held liable for any damages caused by the underage driver.
Who is the owner of the car your adult daughter was driving, you or her? If you, you can both be liable. Her as the driver, and you as the owner of the vehicle
If you're meaning liable for damage in a collision, he would only be liable only if he took control of the car and caused the collision. In vehicle theft, they can be charged with 'aiding and abetting' the driver, being knowingly driven in a stolen car. All depending on local state or country laws.
Both, Driver and Haulage operator
let me get this right, a passenger was injured in an accident, and received the drivers personal injury protection insurance im guessing for injury, and the driver want's them to pay them back? doesn't matter if you were a rabbit, and owned 5 ferrari's, if you are a PASSENGER in a car then in no way should you be liable for anything! that is why the drivers must be insured.
