Illinois Appellate Court
Civil Court
Workers' Compensation
(Court opinion corrected 8/10/16.) Court properly confirmed decision of Workers' Compensation Commission denying Plaintiff police officer's claim for benefits for injuries sustained in motor vehicle accident during his drive from home to training session. Officer's injuries took place during normal commuting, and he was not acting within scope of his employment at time of accident. Traveling employee doctrine is not extended to include any claimant involved in accident on the way to their normal workplace, not performing any duties incidental to their employment, where employee's regular work shift was different that day.(HOLDRIDGE, HOFFMAN, HARRIS, and STEWART, concurring.)
