What if the driver was on the clock?

If the driver was on duty, the employer may be legally responsible for the crash—even if they weren’t directly involved.

This is where that legal doctrine of respondeat superior comes into play: When an employee causes harm while performing job duties, their employer is often on the hook.

That means:

• You can go after deeper pockets (bigger insurance coverage)
• You may be eligible for higher damages
• There’s greater potential for company-wide accountability—especially if the company failed to train or supervise properly

We know how to prove employment relationships, uncover company negligence, and hold the real decision-makers accountable.
