Am I able to drive my roomates company vehicle if I dont work for that company?
Find answers to your legal question.





Am I able to drive my roomates company vehicle if I dont work for that company?

My roomate/friend asked me to drive his company truck out of state with a trailer to pick up some furniture 800 miles away. He tried to explain to me that his company allowed other people to drive the company vehicle other than him, but I just dont agree with him and believe that I will not be covered by his insurance nor mine if something were to happen.

You are correct in assuming that you are not covered under his company's insurance. The company gave your friend's information to the insurance company when he was hired, you are not on their policy. I would not want to be in your friend's shoes either if his company found out he was using the vehicle for personal business, if that is what is going on.

No, you would not be covered. My company would can my butt if i ever allowed a non-employee to drive our company trucks..

You will not be covered on the insurance if you dont work for the company. You might be covered on your own but you would have to check with either your insurance or your mates insurance.

certian companys require that employees be on the clock to drive there vehicles or they won`t be covered. Have your roomie
take the 800 mile road trip!!!!!!!!!!!!
