You can’t charge the driver for the accident because deducting that much money from their pay would be a minimum wage violation.Since Gregster believe the shop is responsible I will have to say that the driver should be fired and should owe the shop money since they totaled out a potential customer’s car and made the said shop look bad.
What makes me laugh my pizza-delivering butt off is that’s just as absurd as saying you must consult an attorney every time you pass a speed limit sign to see if the law actually applies to you!What makes me laugh my piza-making butt off is that the answer to this question is the same as the other ones . . . consult a labor attorney and/or your local department of labor!! You will not get a legaly defensible answer to labor questions on this forum.
You’ll get some great insights on what to ask the attorney and what safeguards to put into place in terms of minimizing liaility exposure. Actual legal matters belong with attorneys, even if it costs you a couple bucks.
