United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.

Decided April 18, 1990.

Steven K. Hisaka, Hisaka, Furusho, Ayabe & Goto, Honolulu, Hawaii, for defendant-appellee.

Before SNEED, KOZINSKI and THOMPSON, Circuit Judges.

KOZINSKI, Circuit Judge:

Once again, we consider whether a contract is an instrument by which parties can define their rights and responsibilities by mutual agreement, or a platform for judicial policymaking. We address this question in a diversity case involving a rental car agreement that excludes insurance coverage for unauthorized drivers, where the unauthorized driver in question was a parking valet.
