> Surely she bears some responsibility here?
If you're sitting in the passenger seat of a car driving an insane speed, what do you do? Hit the e-break? You're almost certainly going to die. Call thew police? The person is driving that crazy and you're in a locked room. You do the math.
There is absolutely nothing a passenger can do.
- aardshark 6y agoFrom the details given, it sounds like she should bear some responsibility. But the story is lacking in details. Perhaps her coworker claimed to be sober and had not been visibly drinking at the work party. Perhaps she pleaded with him to slow down. Regardless, she clearly made an error in judgement when she decided to allow this person to drive her car. Should she lose her car over it? No, I don't think so. But if they had been involved in a car accident, should she bear some portion of blame? Definitely.
