Lewis, employed by Roselle Automotive, was driving a company car on a purely personal errand when he collided with a car owned by Taylor. The injured occupants of the Taylor car sued both Lewis and Roselle claiming negligence. Roselle claimed it was not liable for the injuries because Lewis was not acting within the scope of his employment.
Questions
1. Is Roselle correct?
2. Do you think it would make a difference if Roselle had authorized Lewis to perform some company errand on his trip?
3. Would it make a difference if Lewis was driving his own car on company business?
