This stuff happens every day, and plenty of lawsuits come and go. Obviously the people who need to know have access to the information they need to proceed. Everyday, vehicles with different owners, operators and lessees/lessors get in accidents. Who owns a vehicle may not be who registers it, or who operates it. Think of cabs, leased cars, and rental vehicles. A few years back there was a problem in the car leasing business in NY because of cases involving vicarious liability attaching to owners of leased vehicles, even though they had nothing to do with the actual operation of the vehicle, in a state with "joint and several liability", the deep pockets can get emptied even if only a small portion of the liability is actually theirs. Interlocking and overlapping government agencies and authorities, and different restrictions may make suing government agencies a bit trickier, but based on how many get filed, settled, or litigated, it sure doesn't seem like the people who need to figure it out have a major problem doing it. |
