Enterprise claims that it did nothing wrong. We sued Enterprise on the theory that it negligently entrusted its vehicle to the at-fault driver. However, since the agent was not instructed or authorized by Enterprise to perform such a search, one was not done. She remains severely disabled, in great pain, and unable to work.Ī quick and inexpensive (less than $1.00) Internet database search, based on name and birth date, performed by the Enterprise agent, would have disclosed the customer’s license suspension and traffic record. Our client, a passenger in the vehicle, was airlifted to Shands Hospital with life-threatening injuries.
Enterprise rented him the vehicle.Ī few days later, the renter caused a high-speed rollover accident in the Enterprise vehicle on I-75 near Gainesville, Florida. After his credit card was rejected, forcing him to leave the rental agency to obtain cash, he returned with the cash and presented a facially valid (although unlawfully obtained) Texas driver’s license to the rental agent. In 2008, Enterprise rented a vehicle, in Miami, to a person whose Florida driver’s license was under suspension for failing to appear in court on a number of motor vehicle moving violations. Our law firm (along with co-counsel firm Domnick & Shevin, LLP) is currently involved in litigation against the Enterprise car rental company.
