View this case - free  

Overview: N.Y. Veh. & Traf. Law § 388(1), making vehicle owners vicariously liable for negligence of permissive users, had no extra-territorial effect. Thus, as accident occurred in New Jersey, motorist lived there, and auto lessor had headquarters there, New Jersey law applied to claim by motorist's UIM insurer that lessor was vicariously liable.
