4. Jenna drives a truck. She has painted on the side of the vehicle, "Hammers on Wheels" because she occasionally responds to work requests from a business named "Hammers on Wheels." In the course of doing a repair job, Jenna accidentally causes injury to the person who has placed the request for the repair. That injured party sues "Hammers on Wheels," which claims as a defense that Jenna is an independent contractor and, so, was not liable for any damages caused by her. In your opinion, will this defense free "Hammers on Wheels" from any liability claim brought by the injured party? Explain your answer.
