More details to this question:
I was in a car accident in my personal vehicle while driving my supervisor and another coworker back to their parked locations. Our foreman called out this morning and my supervisor did not have a vehicle to go get the company truck. I was instructed to take him and another worker to the foremans house and park my car to get the company truck. We did our job for the day came back to foremans house, left the company truck and we proceeded in my vehicle back to supervisors home. I thought I was being paid for this time due to company "errand" but was informed by my superintendent that company time stops when we leave a job site. As I was returning supervisor and worker back "home" I was in a car accident. No injuries and my truck was badly damaged. Do I have a case against my employer?

As you were the driver, not on a liability angle. Possibly as a workers comp claim and you shoudl retain a workers comp lawyer for that purpose. You might also have claim agains the at fault party if you were not the ause fo the crash.
