PASSAGE
Preston worked as a sales manager for Miller Office Supplies. Miller owned a company truck. Preston asked Miller if he could use the truck on Saturday to move furniture into his new apartment. Miller agreed. Miller knew that Preston's driver's license had been suspended for the past year after two DUI convictions, but Miller believed Preston's driving had improved. While Preston was driving the truck on Saturday, he ran a stop sign and collided with a motorcycle. The motorcyclist sued Miller. Under the State Vehicle Entrustment Act: "An owner who entrusts a vehicle to a person whom the owner knows, or has reason to know, is incompetent, inexperienced, or reckless is liable for the person's negligent operation of the vehicle. Knowledge at the time of entrustment is sufficient; the owner's belief that the person has reformed is not a defense. An owner is not liable merely because the entrustee was acting outside the scope of employment if the elements of this section are met."
Is Miller liable to the motorcyclist?
