[QUOTE="soberups, post: 548167, member: 14668"] That is why the best course of action for us to take as drivers is to completely detach ourselves from the safe driving award program, and to accept the fact that whether or not we are "charged" with an accident has nothing to do with whether or not it was actually our fault or, for that matter, whether or not an actual accident ever even occured. The only thing we should concern ourselves with is whether or not the so-called accident can potentially lead to our suspension or termination, which fortunately will be determined by a grievance panel rather than an idiot in a suit who never did our job and whose only "qualifications" for his position are his ability to kiss ass, make numbers and recite safety slogans. I long ago stopped caring whether or not I got "charged" with an "accident". In the 22 years I have been here, UPS has never been able to come up with a coherent, consistent definition of what constitutes an "accident" in the first place....and whether or not I am "charged" with one is an entirely subjective decision made by a totally unaccountable person who has no concept of the job I do. Therefore, his/her opinion means nothing to me. Charge me, or dont charge me. Give me an award, or dont. As long as I dont get fired, I could care less. [/QUOTE]
