 February 1987 the Plaintiff received injuries when a motorcar driven by one Jacob Groot collided with a van in which he was a passenger. Groot was a tourist and the car he was driving was a rental car which he had hired from the Defendant. Shortly af
ter the accident Groot left Fiji. He has never been traced or served and is accordingly not a party to this action.}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid6426111

r been the Defendant's servant or agent. Apart from anything else he submitted that the rental agreement established just the contrary. As to the Third Party Policy Mr. Singh's argument was that this was quite irrelevant to the proceedings. In the first p
lace the Insurance Company was not a Party to the proceedings and in the second place the question of indemnity could not arise since the liability of the Defendant for the accident could not be established.}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0

 In the present case the Defendant's business was to rent cars but in my view that does not mean that each hirer is going about the Defendant's busine
ss. If the Defendant had asked Groot to perform some small service for him on his way to Sigatoka such a dropping off a packet to a friend of the Defendant and had an accident occurred while the packet was being dropped off then perhaps it could be argued
 
that at time Groot was driving on the Defendant's business. In my view the first submission made by Mr. Maharaj and already quoted is fallacious. Either a person is driving on the rental car hirer's business or he is driving for a pleasure purpose, not bo
th. That the Defendant may have had an interest in seeing his hire car safely returned to him by the hirer did not. in my view, mean that he had an interest in legal terms in the hirer's driving. }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0
