POLICIES
Vehicle Policies Accidents in Company Owned / Guest Vehicles Policy In case of accidents in Company or Guest vehicles, the Team Member will be responsible for the first $500 of dealership insurance deductible and related costs if the Team Member is cited for the accident, or if the Team Member otherwise caused the accident, where permitted by law. All vehicle accidents involving Company vehicles must be reported to the GM, Controller, Risk Management and HR.
76 No policy should be construed to confer any express or implied contractual relationship or rights to any Team Member. The Company reserves the right to modify any policy as necessary, in its sole discretion, to the extent permitted by law. Violation of any Company policies or procedures can result in disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment. If you have any questions about this handbook or Company policies, please feel free to discuss with your Manager or HR. The Company reserves the right to review the Team Members’ driving records and conducts annual motor vehicle checks. If a Team Member is involved in an accident of any kind while operating a vehicle at work, the Company will make a determination as to whether or not the Team Member will be permitted to continue operating vehicles. If negligence or carelessness is involved, the Team Member will be subject to termination. Any Team Member who drives a Company or Guest vehicle who receives a citation for a moving violation or DUI/DWI, whether on or off the job, must immediately report that fact in writing to HR and the GM. Arrests and suspended or revoked driver’s licenses must also be immediately reported in writing to the GM and HR or direct Manager. Team Members who fail to disclose a suspension of their driver’s license will be subject to discipline, up to and including immediate termination, and will not be considered for another position. Team Members are also responsible for updating HR and the GM as the case progresses and for reporting the final outcome. If the vehicle accident occurs on a public roadway or other instance where local law enforcement must be notified, it is the Team Member’s responsibility to comply with all local laws, regulations, and notification procedures. Any traffic citation will be the Team Member’s responsibility. Additionally, all Team Members involved in a vehicle accident involving Company or Guest vehicles will be required to submit to a post-accident drug screen as soon as possible after the accident. Traffic violations and chargeable accidents may affect driving privileges, up to and including termination of Team Member privileges, and may result in other disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment. Demonstrator Vehicles Approved Team Members using a Company demonstrator or other Company vehicle must read and sign the Company Vehicle/Demonstrator Agreement Use Form and the Company Demonstrator Agreement or the Company Vehicle Policy Agreement, as applicable. These forms can be obtained from HR. The Company’s Senior Vice President of Operations has sole discretion to approve a Team Member’s use of a Company demonstrator or other Company vehicle. Driving Requirements Team Members who drive a Company or Guest vehicle are required to have a valid state issued driver’s license from the state in which employment is conducted or neighboring state of residence. Maintaining a valid driver’s license and a driving record acceptable to the Company’s insurance carrier are conditions of continued employment. Team Members who lose their license or are uninsurable are subject to possible termination. Suspended, revoked, partial reinstatements, permits, or identification cards are not forms of a valid driver’s license.
