Jamal worked for a delivery company, and he was driving sometimes up to 10 hours a day. One afternoon, on the way back from making a delivery in his neighborhood, Jamal stopped at the uniform shop to pick up some shirts he needed for work. Usually he would run his errands in his personal vehicle after the day ended, but the uniform shop was on the way to his next delivery anyway. As he turned into the shopping center, Jamal was not paying attention and hit a bicyclist crossing the road, seriously injuring him. Is Jamal's delivery company liable for the bicyclist's injuries?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Yes the company is liable as he was travelling on the bike on his office hours, for his office deliveries.

As he was picking some office shirts during his trip to next delivery, as the shirt shop was in between, then the route will be considered as official work route and that the accident happened when he was performing office work.

Thus, the accident will be a liability of office, and that they are also equally liable.
