LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY TO GRATUITOUS PASSENGERS IN ACTOMOBILES
Abstract
The liability of the driver or owner of an automobile to a gratuitous guest has been a fruitful source of litigation. It has presented the courts with the dilemma of protecting the guest against the wrongdoing of one who has taken another's safety into his hands, and at the same time of protecting insurance companies from being "milked" in suits where the sentiment of the plaintiff and the nominal- defendant are in accord against" the defendant's insurer. the case of Krueger v. Krueger and Summerfield v. Flury are recent in a line of interesting Wisconsin cases in which many angles of the problem are presented.
