[quote=Anonymous]Maryland is a "contributory negligence state" which means that [b]a party "cannot recover damages from an injury in a negligence case if they are found to be partly at fault."[/b] The passengers got into a car with a teen driver they knew to have been drinking. That makes the accident a foreseeable result of their actions and by law makes the passengers at least "partly at fault". Therefore the imprisoned teen driver (and his parents) cannot be held civilly liable. I'd say those suing parents should instead be thankful and humbled that their teens were spared death. [/quote]
