1Opinion of the Court
TATE, Judge.
The plaintiff, Miss Hathorn, was injured as the result of a two-car collision. She was a passenger in a vehicle driven by Mrs. Gussie Edwards, which was hit by another car driven by Earl McKay, a minor. Miss Hathorn sues McKay, his father (Emmerick), their liability insurer *76(State Farm), and the liability insurer (Phoenix) of the Edwards automobile.
The trial court held that McKay’s negligence was the sole proximate cause of the accident and rendered judgment against Earl McKay (by then emancipated), his father, and the liability insurer. These defendants appeal.1
