Enterprise Not Liable for Accident Solely Caused by Driver Negligence Despite Lack of Professional License

A plaintiff, injured when a vehicle belonging to a commercial enterprise struck their own vehicle, sued the enterprise for damages, alleging the driver was operating the vehicle without the necessary professional license required for that category of transport. The appellate court upheld the trial court's decision dismissing the claim, finding that while the driver lacked the specific professional license, the enterprise was not automatically liable because the accident was solely attributable to the driver's negligence and the lack of the required license did not constitute a legally independent ground for the enterprise's liability under the principles of vicarious liability or general fault, as the operational error itself was the sole cause.
