4 Given the facts and circumstances set forth in the question above, Archie then decided that since he was probably going to be fired, he should use the truck to transport a sofa from his mom's house to his apartment, as his car was not big enough to fit the sofa, and he planned to do it at the end of his shift anyway. The company didn't allow this, but "what it didn't know wouldn't hurt it!" He knew that the last time an employee used a truck without the employer's permission, the employer reported the truck as stolen, but he went ahead anyway. Low and behold, on his 4-mile, out-of- the-way trip to get the sofa, Archie hit a different pothole dead center, and the back doors of the truck popped open allowing carts containing trays of bread to fall out onto the car behind him, causing the car's air bag to activate. The driver, Adalberto, was stunned, but not seriously hurt, but the damage to the car and replacement of the air bag would cost approximately $6000.00. Assume that Archie will be liable to for the cost of damages, but he has little money to pay any damages. Is Good-ta-Eat liable for damages suffered by Adalberto? (Explain in 20 words or fewer)
