Abstract
Although numerous automotible accidents have been caused by brake failure, the courts have yet to concur on a rule as to the drivers' liability when the brakes fail without the driver's knowledge that they were defective. In Ohio, the driver is held to be negligent per se for the injuries resulting from an unforeseen brake failure.
