Q: Can I get paid for lost wages if I was not injured in an accident it was my work truck it was insured as a work truck
The lady of course said that she had a green light but there is a witness states that we both had a green light and she ran a red light Causing the accident
A: The short is answer is yes. Assuming that you were injured while working, you should be entitled to workers' compensation, unless your employer fits within one of the exceptions. Regardless, from the looks of it, you have a combination workers' compensation claim and a personal injury claim against the other driver. I would highly encourage you to reach out to an experienced workers' comp and PI lawyer to further discuss, as these things are time sensitive.
