Joint Adventure (Enterprise): Automobile Cases
A joint adventure is created when there is a financial or commercial agreement
between the parties, either expressed or implied, to contribute money or services in a business
venture. In such relation, the parties share the profits but not necessarily the losses, and each
party has mutual control of the means employed to carry out their common purpose or control
of the subject matter of the venture. "Control," as here used, does not mean the actual or
physical operation of automobile but rather control as applied to the use of the automobile.
A joint adventure does not arise from a social relation or from a joint interest in the
object or purpose of the trip.
