Legal Question in Insurance Law in North Carolina

Insurance laws

I am a pizza delivery driver. I recently was struck by a deer while on a delivery. I am wondering if the restaurant I work for is responsible for the damages since I was on the clock when the deer ran into me.

If you are an employee (and not an independent contractor), then you probably are entitled to workers compensation coverage.
