A yard jockey wrecks in to the shop building, doesn't report the wreck. Keeps his job. On company property.


Local cartage driver wrecks into a building of a customer's, gets out and looks at the damage, gets back in the UPS freight tractor, gets his coat, looks and the damage again, gets back in the tractor, leaves the scene of an accident, does not report the accident. The company(customer) calls UPS parcel, they find out it's a freight tractor that was involved. Ask the driver about it, driver denies having an accident, the comapny had a video of the accident forward a copy to UPS parcel and freight, the driver is clearly shown on the video wrecking into customer property, driver again denies it. UPS insurance pays claim, driver not fired... has been working for 1 month since accident. Amazing.:whiteflag:

Schedule the movers and hire a realtor.

Kind of smug for a guy with your kind of driving record.

Do you guys work out of the same building?

Driver brings pkg car back to the building, looking like a 747 made an emergency landing on right rear top. Roof opened like a can of sardines. Damage not reported till next morning, by preload. Driver denies knowledge of any incident. Driver grilled, denies, denies, denies. Driver gets away with incident.
