FedEx Freight | Question

[Boats n hoes]

Accident in my personal vehicle. Someone hit Me from behind. No moving violations. Do I need to bring it in even though I'm not at fault? I got the police report and insurance is involved. Got pictures of the rear end Collison done to my vehicle. Not sure if that will need to be shown. Both vehicles able to be driven away under own power.

If you weren’t cited, I don’t think it needs to be reported to the company.

Once a year report motor vehicle violations in non cdl accidents.

What does this mean?

What does this mean?

You have to sign a statement once per year to show any violations personal or for work. It’s a DOT regulation. In your case, you don’t have a violation, so it doesn’t need to be reported.

Ah ok thank you for the explanation. Never been in one of these. First time.

Had you been cited, and convicted of a violation, it would have to be reported to the company. Sorry for your bad luck though, I hope the insurance will take care of you.

The DOT does not require accidents & violations reports from the driver anymore since May of last year. The employer is responsible for pulling each drivers record and forwarding to DOT per the rule change from the FMCA. The only time you report accidents and violations is if they occur in company owned equipment.

Thanks for the correction, I wasn’t aware of that change.

Been there, unfortunately. I asked local management about it, they said they only need to know about convictions.

I hope things work out for you better than they did for me.
