[QUOTE="brownIEman, post: 3232978, member: 14596"] You're reading way too much into it. I said the attitude was common, I never said every driver holds it. Your described attitude about drivers among management is also way too common but far from universal as you seem to think. I redily admit I had not nearly that level of training. I would argue, however, that I did not need it to determine the guy backing down a 200 yard shared driveway and knocked into power company transformer enclosure was guilty of an avoidable. Or the guy that was making a quick 3 point in a HS parking last and backed broadside into a teenager trying to get around him. Or that the the guy slowing in traffic and was rear ended by a distracted driver and the guy hit head on by another distracted driver while stopped to make a left turn were both involved in unavoidable accidents. Anything more involved than that such as would lead to immediate termination would not end with me. I would get pictures and statements from witnesses and prepare diagrams of the scene and the ultimate determinations would be made by safety professionals from UPS and Liberty Mutual, some of whom I worked with and did have that level of training and experience.
