If I am driving my own car working delivering pizzas, and I hit a pedestrian, does my employer have liability or am I in my own since it was my car?

the question is whether or not you are an employee or an independent contractor. Do you get a paycheck with taxes witheld? Does your employer pay you for mileage? Do you get benefits? How much control over your job does your employer execise. concerning hours, routes, etc. Is there a sign on your car with the name of the pizza parlor. Generally, so long as you are driving your own car and the employer witholds no taxes, you would be primarily responsible (through your insurance company). A lawyer might try to hold the pizza parlor in, but generally, the inurance goes with the car, and I doubt his insurance company has the right kind of coverage to cover you. |
