How much would a company guy pay for a rollover??

Where are the details?

What was your employment status?

What company is this?

How long were you driving for - years?

Did you get hurt at all?

 

Theirs was same as mine 1,000 deductible.

 

We've had two guys rollover here, about 2 years ago. Both cases the driver was being an idiot, and the fault was clearly on them. The one idiot's claim was over $200k and the other im not sure about, but neither had to pay anything, and they're still employed here.

That being said, I've known companies that make the driver pay the insurance deductible. As a company schmuck, if I was clearly at fault, I'd offer to pay the deductible. But that's just me.

 

A company driver should pay nothing at all. Properly, the company could fire him but not make him pay.

 

I recently ran into this. Escrow to cover $1000 deductible for any future accident deemed my fault. I refused to sign the one page contract. They hired me anyway. Unless you agreed in writing, they can’t penalize you. Contact the States Labor board if they do.

 

When I was an overnight road breakdown agent for a mid-sized national carrier, I once had to handle the cleanup from a trailer-topping by myself. The driver had a hazmat load of paint, and hit a low railroad overpass in the south side of Chicago, ruining the trailer. We had a terminal near Gary, so a replacement trailer was quickly sent out to the wreck site. The tow company alone (for sending out 2 wreckers) was just about the entire $10k I was authorized to pay out on my shift. The company they called to transload the load into our empty was covered by my boss when he came in, and it was something like $6k. The commuter railroad who owned the overpass sent out an inspector, and I'm certain they sent a bill to us later. Also, a fairly new trailer was essentially turned into scrap metal. Luckily, none of the load was lost or damaged. So, this SIMPLE low clearance accident was $60k+, and that was 25+ years ago.

 

They’ll pay by working in another industry or having their next job be with some shady 1099 outfit

 

Depends if it's Chicago 1099 outfit or not
