Am I negligent for being there in a car accident? This is a question people have especially after the insurance adjuster tells you the insurance company is reducing your property damage or personal injury recovery be a percentage because you are at fault just for being there. This is not correct. There is no law in Wisconsin that says a driver is negligent or partly responsible for an auto accident just for being there.
