Legal Question in Federal Tort Claims in Florida

torts

Senerio: an officer was speeding through an intersection, he hit a semi in the side rear tires he did not have his emergancy lights, nor was he wearing his seatbelt. He is suing the truck driver.

Would the officer failing to wear the seatbelt be relevant toward liability or just damages? What is the difference?
