Hello sir/madam
Yes you can sue the driver . But you need to be clear on few thing because through your mail i am not able to figure out few things so for that feel free to visit my office .
And in legal terms this is Vicarious liability .
So you can sue driver and company under CP act

due to mistake or intentionallt unintentionally, the vehicle in an accident and the passengers were got the injuries, all damage upon the driver and owner of the vehicle in MACT case, if the opposite vehicle clashed or in an accident then both paties shall involved. But you don't give the detail regarding other party. If alone the party (driver) then driver,owner and insurance co will also full resonsible for the same.

You can file a case of negligence or drunken driving against the driver the onusbisbon the person driving. The car owner can be liable only when the car was not in roadworthy condition.
Basically a car owner is the one in whose name the car has been registered, he may be held liable when he knew that the driver was not fit for the purpose
