The owner of a motor vehicle can be held liable for injuries caused by the driver of their car, even though they are neither driving nor at the accident scene. This is due to the basis of their ownership and their grant of permission for the at-fault driver to user their vehicle. In most jurisdictions will treat the car owner as sharing liability for any accident caused by the borrower. The owner’s liability may be predicated on statute, or on common law principles such as negligent entrustment.
