On the totality of the evidence the court formed the overall impression that the claimant was a self-employed independent contractor on the date of accident: respondents exercised no control, claimant owned and maintained the vehicle, bore operating costs and financial risk, hired assistants, did not account for MPF or tax as an employee, and hospital records identified him as self-employed; therefore the Ordinance did not apply and the compensation claim failed.
