[QUOTE="dmac1, post: 4481290, member: 60252"] There are plenty of personal vehicles out there today doing commercial work without the licensing and insurance commercially registered vehicles are required to have. Just think Uber, Lyft, Instacart, newspaper carriers and so on. All those vehicles out there, under-insured and mostly un-inspected by any authority, are there because of the laws allowing "contractors" to take a lot of the liability and costs off of business. Taxpayers are making up some of the costs business should have paid- with 'contractors' being allowed to collect unemployment during the corona virus outbreak as one example. Some of these people are getting food stamps and medicaid as low paid contractors, and the general public doesn't realize that they are picking up the slack from wealthy companies dumping costs, and because they are using contractors, they can claim that all their employees are covered with health insurance and have great benefits, and the public never knows. It's like fedex ground vs fedex express drivers. The general public still thinks that a fedex ground driver is a fedex employee, and of course fedex treats employees well and offers great benefits.
