responsabilité imputée

OBS: responsabilité imputée : terme normalisé par le Comité de normalisation, Promotion de l'accès à la justice dans les deux langues officielles (PAJLO).

CONT: A chauffeur who takes his employer's car without authority collides with a cyclist. His employer is not responsible. Yet if the car also suffered damage and was entrusted to the employer under a bailment for purposes of hire on repair, he would be answerable to the bailor, not because of any vicarious or imputed liability but because of his personal duty as bailee.
