Getting Hire With Preventable Accidents

If what you are saying is so, the company may have had a point system policy where ANY accident during the first year was multiplied and you had enough points to be fired. I have experienced a trucking company doing this, I bumped a mirror and when I asked for the guys info he sped off … there was zero damage… but the guy lied and reported that I hit him and sped off …. I reported it to safety and my dispatch when it happened I asked what I should do …. I was told no big deal I should be fine… the next day while backing a bobtail pulled into my trailer … same truck stop and I called the cops sat 5 hours till they came and they alleged that I had damaged their entire truck the officers first words to me were “ we weren’t born yesterday” after waiting and asking everyone…. The cop told me “you’re not getting a ticket a witness said what you said — they pulled into you, you’re fine” I was fired and those were put on my dac…. When I called safety and asked the person said “you mean where the guy hit you, that shouldn’t be on there” it was … I have filed a dispute and have been working to get that off of my dac but that’s made it take longer than otherwise… I have pics and video footage … the company can speak to a cop and decide what they want the worse part is that the company informed me that the bob tails dot and mc numbers were BOTH expired yet I was still fired and they said “it wasn’t for the incident but it was because it happened during your first month” that’s not what the dac says I have driven for Lyft 10 years and I have been hit once ….. I have one ticket because I didn’t stop long enough (the stop sign was blocked by a tree bush but I still stopped fully) he pulled me over because he thought I was holding my phone it was in my trucker stand …he dropped that and then said oh well you didn’t stop…. Poor neighborhood early morning (which i normally avoid) long story short…just because it’s not probable doesn’t mean it didn’t happen….
