In this case, the Defendant employer gave its employee, Garrioch, a company truck and its keys. Garrioch did not have a licence, so Garrioch gave the truck to Tessman to drive. At the material time, Tessman’s relationship with the Defendant company was not clear. His contract was finished, but he was expected to return after break-up. Ultimately, his relationship with the Defendant company was not relevant to the ultimate decision.
