A bailment is the act of placing property in the custody and control of another, usually by agreement in which the holder (bailee) is responsible for the safekeeping and return of the property. When a motor vehicle is delivered to and accepted by a garage owner for storage, a bailment for mutual benefit generally results, and the relationship defines the legal relationship of the parties. The garage owner is bound to exercise ordinary care in the safeguarding of the vehicle. This can be modified somewhat by agreement between the parties.
