What is the name of your state? New Jersey
I work for an auto dealer and after a particular bad snow storm I was tasked to move cars from the show lot and the customer parking/maintenance lot. This entails moving the cars across a busy two lane street. While moving one of the cars I was waiting at the end of the lot entrance to drive across the street when I thought the time was right I gave it gas but the wheels spun due to the conditions and I didn't get the jump I though I would. I was hit in the back rear by a van coming down the street. I was give a ticket by the cop on the scene and was taken to the hosp for xrays and minor injurys. The other driver was not injured (at that time) The dealer agreeed to fix the van and that was supposed to be the end of it. (I lost my job) Apparently the dealer didn't due the other driver justice and now he is suing thew dealer and sent me a paper asking for my policy (I do not have my own I am on my father's) Can I be liable for damages and if so what are my options. My father never reported the accident to the insr co. because he felt if I was on company time and in there car and doing whayt I was tasked to do it would be the dealer's umbrellar coverage the handles the situation
