Possibly. If it's a CDL that you need as a requirement of your job where they are insuring you & this may depend too on what STATE you live in.

It also depends what the illness is. Is it a hangover? Vomiting? Blacking out? (you do not say).

If an employer has KNOWLEDGE that you are in an incapacitated state or have had any illness that could put yourself or other drivers in peril, they may be held responsible for (allowing you to drive with the knowledge i.e. that your driving skills were altered, then) in that case that MAY have the Legal RESPONSIBILITY to prevent you from driving. I don't know that it's necessarily a RIGHT.

I'd be glad that my EMPLOYER cared enough either way not to let me drive.

How can you get out of a ticket if you were driving the company vehicle and your boss was rushing you ive gotten 3 tickets in the company vehicle in less than 3 weeks?

Unfortunitly you are in control of your actions. If any employer is requesting you to break the law, then you should make your own decision and leave that company or advise your employer that you will not be driving if that is there decision. You will be held accountable for your actions and your employer is not held liable. Unless you can prove that he had physically pushed your foot against the accelerator there is nothing that can be done.
