Appeal allowed: Deputy Judge’s finding that the 2nd defendant was the 1st defendant's agent was unsupported by evidence of authorization, request, delegation of a task by the 1st defendant or control over the driver; the 2nd defendant was more probably employed by the 4th defendant and the vehicle was being used in execution of subcontract works for which ownership and possession had been parted; ownership alone does not attract vicarious liability.
