How does the safety bonus work? If you go the whole year without any incidents they hook you up with a little cash? How much do you get?

At ABF we get $25.00 credit at the company store. 
Starts at 300 bucks, and max is like 3000
The Safety Bonus was at one time posted in the Drivers Handbook. It used to show amounts for years of Safe Driving.
You could lose your Bonus for a speeding ticket (Company Truck or Personal Vech), hurt or away from job. These are the couple of things I know of.
Even Drivers that are now on the Dock collect Safety Bonus....... Go figure.
Heard at one time they were going change to Fuel Bonus/ ROI Score.

Be happy you don't "owe your soul to the company store". I trust you've moved your sixteen tons, lol.

I was told by a regional safety manager that personal vehicle speeding tickets do not count against your personal vehicle. Hope it doesn't, I got one in the car this year...

Anything while off duty in personal vehicle doesn't go against bonus.
Guess that depends on what SC you are at. Safety is a all around situation. You do have to report all tickets (except parking) to SCM.

Things that happen in your personal vehicle do not go against safety bonus. Only tickets for preventable accident will cause you to lose your safety bonus. Deer strikes do not cause you to lose a safety bonus either, so it's a good idea to keep a little deer hair in the glove box! Depending on the severity of the accident and how long you been without a preventable you may not lose it over a preventable accident either. I know of cases where the manager was able to have the bonus reduced by the amount of damage.
