If you are traveling for your job is different than going to your job. It is called an accident if you are on your way to work and you can't draw Workman's comp. If you have an accident while at work in transit for your job you can collect Workman's comp but it is still called an accident

If the employee is just commuting between home and work, they are on their own time and if involved in an accident they aren't deemed to be at work.
If they are travelling on business and are in some kind of accident, that would be deemed to be a work issue.

It is called an accident, unless they are on the clock. Travel time to and from work is not paid
