SVG; IV. Titel: Haftpflicht und Versicherung; 1. Abschnitt: Haftpflicht; Schadenersatz zwischen Motorfahrzeughaltern
Art. 61 SVG
Wird bei einem Unfall, an dem mehrere Motorfahrzeuge beteiligt sind, ein Halter körperlich geschädigt, so wird der Schaden den Haltern aller beteiligten Motorfahrzeuge nach Massgabe des von ihnen zu vertretenden Verschuldens auferlegt, wenn nicht besondere Umstände, namentlich die Betriebsgefahren, eine andere Verteilung rechtfertigen.
Für Sachschaden eines Halters haftet ein anderer Halter nur, wenn der Geschädigte beweist, dass der Schaden verursacht wurde durch Verschulden oder vorübergehenden Verlust der Urteilsfähigkeit des beklagten Halters oder einer Person, für die er verantwortlich ist, oder durch fehlerhafte Beschaffenheit seines Fahrzeuges.
Mehrere ersatzpflichtige Halter haften dem geschädigten Halter solidarisch.
