[QUOTE="trplnkl, post: 402162, member: 13254"] Everyone has made some very good points here and most are correct, IMO, just on different levels. If in av8's state you must appear at the DMV to get your license renewed then it should be just a matter of the driver being given the time to do so, after all it occurs with every driver, right? However it IS the driver's responsibility to have the DL renewed. Here in my state I just go online and click on renew amd two weeks later I have the new license in hand. How can a center manager send out a driver without a valid DL? That one's easy he has an OCS/safety sup to blame it on when it goes sour and keeps his (the center manager's) butt covered. IMO, The safety program would not exist if it were not for OSHA's presence. UPS's main concern for safety is when it comes to the dollars and cents (not sense). av8 I fail to see the logic in [B]"Seems like a licensed driver at the least would be safer than a non licensed one"[/B], I don't lose all my safe driving abilities because my license might expire. I feel I should add here that my opinions may be a bit askewed due to the misuse and misapplication of safety rules and commettees that I have personally witnessed. [/QUOTE]
