30 Mich. App. 212 (1971)
186 N.W.2d 76
GRAY
v.
BLACKMAN
Docket No. 8769.
Michigan Court of Appeals.
Decided January 27, 1971.
Balfour Peisner, for plaintiff.
Harry Okrent, for defendant.
*213 Before: LESINSKI, C.J., and LEVIN and O'HARA,[*] JJ.
PER CURIAM.
Plaintiff Wayne Gray brought this suit pursuant to the section of the Liquor Control Act commonly referred to as the dramshop act (MCLA § 436.22 [Stat Ann 1970 Cum Supp § 18.993]), alleging that defendant Orelin Blackman wrongfully served liquor to an intoxicated person who subsequently injured plaintiff. Defendant moved for and was granted summary judgment on the ground that the action was barred by the two year limitation period contained in the act. Plaintiff appeals as of right.
Plaintiff's sole contention on appeal is that the limitations portion of the dramshop act is beyond the scope of the title of the Liquor Control Act (MCLA § 436.1 et seq. [Stat Ann 1957 Rev § 18.971 et seq.]), and is, therefore, unconstitutional.[1] We do not agree.
The object of the Liquor Control Act, as indicated in its title, is the regulation and control of liquor traffic. Beacon Club v. Kalamazoo County Sheriff (1952), 332 Mich 412. The civil cause of action created by the act is an exclusive remedy in derogation of the common law. LeGault v. Klebba (1967), 7 Mich App 640; Virgilio v. Hartfield (1966), 4 Mich App 582. Inclusion of a provision for such civil remedy has been held germane to the title of a prior act controlling and regulating the business of selling intoxicants pursuant to similar requirements of the 1850 Constitution.[2]Sisson v. Lampert (1910), 159 *214 Mich 509. We find no reason to depart from that ruling.
Since the statute creates a right of action, the limitation period therein contained is to be construed as a limitation on the right itself. Bement v. Grand Rapids & I.R. Co. (1916), 194 Mich 64; Holland v. Eaton (1964), 373 Mich 34. We find the limitation period sufficiently germane and incidental to the creation of the civil remedy to be embraced within the title of the Liquor Control Act. See Loomis v. Rogers (1917), 197 Mich 265; Naudzius v. Lahr (1931), 253 Mich 216.
Affirmed. Costs to defendant.
