Under the Wisconsin comparative fault rule, an injured party’s fault does not bar them from financial recovery as long as they are not primarily at fault for the crash.

However, if an injured party bears a majority of the fault, they cannot recover compensation.

In other cases, when an injured party has some responsibility for the accident that injured them, a court will reduce any compensation awarded at trial in proportion to the percentage of fault attributed to them.
