STATUTORY INDEXING:
Definition of Motor Vehicle (General) [§3101(2)(e)]
TOPICAL INDEXING:
Not Applicable
CASE SUMMARY:
The Court of Appeals held that where a Plaintiff motorcyclist was injured when he struck a farm tractor pulling a manure spreader and Plaintiff sought no-fault benefits from his father's insurer, the insurer's sole liability would arise only under an uninsured motorist clause or other contractual provision since neither the motorcycle nor the tractor is a motor vehicle to which the no-fault statute applies.
