Question: Is my wife's friend liable for the drunk driving incident?
Question Detail: My wife's friend allowed her to drive her rental vehicle when she knew my wife was intoxicated. Subsequently my wife was arrested for DUI. However, my wife's friend who promised me she would call me or a cab if they had too many that night gets off unscathed. I feel as the registered operator of the rental she had some responsibility in the matter. Can I take court action against her to recover court costs, fines or anything? I got stuck paying all the fines and dealing with the aftermath.

 

I doubt your friend can be held liable for anything unfortunately.  Sorry.
