Ask the Lawyer | What makes a crash involving a company vehicle more valuable?

Question:

What makes a crash involving a company vehicle more valuable?

Answer:

Cases involving company vehicles are inherently more valuable, and that’s because whether it’s an 18-wheeler, a pickup, or a car, if it’s a company vehicle, then there are special rules that the driver was supposed to follow, and that the company should have had in place that should have prevented the crash.

In the event of an 18-wheeler or big truck, you’re talking about a professional driver that has a lot more rules.

But even in a company car, the company should have in place rules to screen bad drivers and to prevent bad driving.

All of that makes company vehicle cases more valuable.
