CASE: Lim v Cho [2018] NSWCA 145

A family dinner out takes an unexpected turn. On the drive home from the restaurant, mum is driving, dad is in the front passenger seat and two kids (2 years old and 4 years old) are in the back.  Mum and dad start arguing and dad decides to end the argument by leaving the vehicle... while it's still moving. He jumps out as the car is going 50km/hr. He suffers some serious injuries. He then sues his wife for not breaking. 

Is the wife liable for the husband's injuries?
