Adjudged that the determination is confirmed, the petition is denied, and the proceeding is dismissed on the merits, with costs.

[544]*544Contrary to the petitioner’s contention, the service of the summons on the driver of its truck was authorized by Vehicle and Traffic Law § 385 (20-a) (see Vehicle and Traffic Law §§ 1600, 1642 [a]; Matter of IESI NY Corp. v Martinez, 8 AD3d 667 [2004]; Matter of Sureway Towing v Martinez, 8 AD3d 490 [2004]; Matter of Clinton Ave. Constr.
