This section contains the nature of the case and procedural background.

Wilson (P), a grade school teacher, was injured in an automobile accident after driving her children to school and driving to her own school. In her car was a small bag containing school supplies, including her teaching manual. The school district did not require a teacher to use personal transportation; public transportation was available. Class preparation was often done at home for convenience, although there was time to do it at school. P went to the Workers' Compensation Appeals Board (D), attempting to be compensated for her injuries. D denied her benefits, making the following principal findings: (1) P's home was not a second job site because her activities outside school hours were matters of personal choice, (2) only convenience motivated P's automobile trip, and (3) the 'transportation of the work-related items was not a major part of the trip, nor even a significant alternative reason for the trip.' P seeks review of this order.
