Mark Champion v. David W. Dunfee, Jr. v. Kristi Kakoda

01-31-08 A-3167-06T2

We hold that a guest passenger who neither owns nor
controls the motor vehicle, who enjoys no special relationship
to, and has not substantially encouraged the wrongful behavior
of, the actual tortfeasor, owes no affirmative duty to a fellow
passenger to prevent a visibly intoxicated driver from driving
his own automobile.
