Coons and lawlor began a trip in coonss car shortly after


Question: Coons and Lawlor began a trip in Coons's car. Shortly after leaving Coons's home, Coons felt tired and asked Lawlor to take the wheel. While Lawlor was driving, he fell asleep, the car hit a utility pole, and Coons was injured. Coons sued Lawlor. Lawlor's automobile insurance company claimed that Coons was not covered because he was a guest in his own car, and under the applicable guest statute, he could not recover without proving willful misconduct on Lawlor's part. Is this defense valid? (Coons v. Lawlor, 804 F.2d 28)
