OPINION

SCHNEIDER, Chief Justice.

Appellant Chris Schulz appeals the trial court’s order granting State Farm Automobile Insurance Company’s motion for summary judgment. We affirm.

Background

The summary judgment evidence shows that on August 15, 1990, Gunar Fulk, Schulz’s son, was driving a pickup truck owned by Schulz’s husband and insured by State Farm. Fulk, accompanied by a friend, gave a ride to Lonnie Earl Johnson. Some time thereafter, Johnson shot three fatal rounds into Fulk’s face and chest as Fulk was standing outside the truck. Johnson then killed Fulk’s friend with a shot to his back.
