DONNELLY, Judge,
concurring.
In Gustafson v. Benda, 661 S.W.2d 11 (Mo. banc 1983), this Court moved toward assuring that each party to an occurrence “should bear responsibility only in proportion to his fault.” Steinman v. Strobel, 589 S.W.2d 293, 296 (Mo. banc 1979) (Donnelly, J., dissenting).
In my view, the principal opinion is another step in that direction and Sperry is no longer viable.
I concur.
