[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 336611, member: 9789"] Soberups, All I can tell you is that as a manager I would charge the accidents all the same. A broken mirror in the city is no different than in the country. You can put the damaged mirror on the DVIR but you failed to report an accident. Eventually you will have a manager that will define a broken mirror as an accident. Then you will need to be more careful! You have defined the parameters of an accident to fit your needs! It does not make it so. Don't ever tell someone it is the "cost of doing business"! LOL Parts wear out and break but a broken mirror is caused from a careless act. You had to get so close to a tree that a branch hit your mirror and broke. UPS would consider that an unsafe act. You could go so far as to say it is willful, wanton malicious damage and destruction of UPS property! You know where I am going with this! So go ahead and continue to put yourself and UPS property in harm's way. It will catch up with you sooner or later. I certainly hope that other drivers who read your posts do not make the same distinction as you do in regards to broken mirrors. [/QUOTE]
