Is it better to drive a company or personal vehicle for work?

Answer by  flamiss22 (5081)

Absolutely it is better to drive the company vehicle. You will not be putting miles and wear and tear on your personal car even if they reimburse you miles. Also the company will assume all financial liability for you.

It depends. If you drive a company vehicle you don't have to worry about mileage, wear and tear and other expenses on your vehicle. You also have to know you are on company time in their vehicle. Some companies won't allow smoking, personal trips or reckless driving while operating their vehicle.

In most cases it is best to drive a company vehicle. You have less wear and tear on your own personal car, and look more professional in a company car. The company is required to insure the care and you should there be an accident while on the job, and your family will not be car-less for any time.

It is better to drive a personal vehicle if the driving is less than 3,000 miles per year. In that case, the mileage reimbursement is money toward your car payment and maintenance. If driving more than 3,000 miles a year, you will wear out a vehicle and require a replacement sooner - so get a company car.
