You need to provide much more information. The normal commute to and from work is not considered work related. You must be doing some service for the employer aside from showing up to work [carrying tools, driving to a different location then were the business is, making a sales call first and then going to the office, etc.]. If you provide more details I can give a more definite answer.

Just based upon the facts in your question, your claim may be wiped clean by the Going and Coming Rule. Unless you can prove that you were on some sort of special mission for your employer at the time of your accident, then I would say that the prosecution of your case may be difficult. Please call me for a free consultation at 1.877.505.INJURY.
