[QUOTE="AKCoverMan, post: 1845166, member: 17867"] Tooner.. I'm so sorry your going thru this. I've read your posts for years almost like I know you, and I am shocked and appalled by this. Like Tripiscut, I too once hit and killed a dog. It was early in my career on my third or fourth week of Saturday Air driving. dog was out loose while owner was working in his yard. I never saw her, she was in some bushes and according to the owner ran out after the PC trying to bite the tire. All I felt was the bump. Her owner and I held her and petted her while she died. Owner tried to console [I]me, [/I]telling me nothing I could have done, that the dog had always been bad about chasing vehicles. That was horrible. I'm a huge dog lover, but even if I wasn't I would still have felt awful for the owner who clearly was upset,of the death of his dog. Yet I was never even charged with an accident as the owner didn't want to pursue anything and the dog as out running loose on city street. But this idiot of a center manager is charging you with an accident that never even happened! It's guilt by being in the wrong place at the wrong time apparently. Grieve the letter, grieve the PCM under Art. 37! The letter must be thrown out, the accident charge should be removed since you did not have one, and the turdbqll center manager should be required to hold another PCM exonerating you and apologizing to you in front of your peers. Your 23 yrs of safe driving (props for that!!) should continue unblemished. And I think you ought to get paid for taking tomorrow off. Maybe that's just me.. I'll keep a good thought for you my friend. Peace. [/QUOTE]
