Commentary:
With any kind of single-vehicle accident where a passenger is injured, considering the passenger doesn’t have control of the car, people tend to wonder how things work. Well, considering the passenger is at the mercy of the driver, if the accident was the fault of the driver, the claim would more than likely be one against the policy of the driver, but this isn’t the only possibility.
If the accident was caused by a problem with the vehicle itself, as we’ve seen in situations recently with Toyota’s sticking accelerators, both the driver and passenger may have a claim against the vehicle manufacturer. It really depends on the specific cause of the accident.
