    it depends.

    1) was it on the expected course? yes - company. no - maybe not company
    2) was deviation major? yes - if driver had begun to return to expected route, then company. otherwise, driver.
    3) small deviation? if the stop could be anticipated - company. else - driver.

    basically, if this was on his expected route, then company. otherwise, probably not.

    this would be a tort for negligence and damages.

Trees also stand aside due to my chainsaw blood.

    Thanks for all your advice! It's been a fucking headache the past 2 days now. From the sounds of it, the company that hit it wanted to go through their insurance, but once the insurance company saw pictures of the damaged sign/pole, they said they will not cover the pole (because of already existing damages) and told the company to take care of just the sign, which is the $847. So most likely or not, i'm going to take this to court. This is bullshit because the use of a lift truck and installation if $650.00 alone, how the hell do they think the sign, material and labor will be $200. Ughhh idiots.
