This is a case to decide liability for an injury that resulted when a child fell or jumped from the back of a pickup truck while it was being driven by a driver who was not his parent. The justice examines a driver's duty of care to his passengers. In all cases there is a duty of care required of the passenger to wear a seatbelt. In addition, the driver has a duty to insure that those passengers under the age of 16 are properly restrained.
