What is the test for determining whether a motorcyclist is liable for a motor vehicle accident?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Peretto v. Department of Motor Vehicles, 1 Cal.Rptr.2d 392, 235 Cal.App.3d 449 (Cal. App. 1991):

9 The court also concluded that a full adjudication of the question of liability was not required; instead, procedural due process would be satisfied by an inquiry limited to determining whether there was a reasonable possibility of a judgment being rendered against the driver as a result of the accident. (Bell v. Burson, supra, 402 U.S. at p. 540, 91 S.Ct. at p. 1590.)
