WOODARD, Justice.
This is an appeal from a summary judgment emanating from a wrongful death suit. We affirm.
Appellants are the widow and surviving parents of a pedestrian killed when struck by an automobile driven by an unlicensed minor, Gregory Daniel Alkofer. In addition to suing Gregory for negligent driving, his mother, Barbara, was sued for negligent entrustment; and both were charged with gross negligence.
Appellee, insurer of the Alkofer automobile, intervened and successfully moved for a declaratory summary judgment limiting its liability to $50,000.00.
