Please Advise my DAC reported as a preventable accident

Marten didn't wait for the outcome of the ticket?

No innocent until proven guilty?



Just curious, what damage did your truck cause to the car or what damage did your truck suffer?


How did the car in front of you evade the car that hit the chute?

 

I would try going thru Marten first.Be Professional,Be Nice.Be able/ready to fax the info of the Courts findings.Ask for confirmation,and get the name of the person who is charged with helping you... Ask how long it will take them to correct this.I say Seven Business days....

IF YOU GET NO RESPONSE FROM MARTEN...

I would contact DAC(They have to follow the same rules as Credit Bureaus..Under the "Fair Credit Act)Tell them THEY have posted inaccurate information.If they start the B.S.,let them finish their spill..then bring it right back to "You have posted inaccurate info and I have been turned down for a job because of it".Keep your remarks focused on the FALSE INFORMATION on THIER REPORT.At the very least,you need to have the the Courts opinion attached to it...This should be in writing ,with the courts seal,if possible.DAC must react..But they will take the Max time allowed to fix this...

Still nothing.You might have to but an hour of time from an Attorney..Have him send out a Lawyer letter...

 

Send a copy of all tickets or accident reports and court summaries to Hireright when you send in the rebuttal form you download and fill out. Also send them to Martin return receipt requested with a letter asking them to remove this negative information from #1 your permenate personnel record and from your Hireright/DAC report JUST BE NICE in the letter. Also spell check and proof read BOTH letters. The on t to Martin and the one to Hireright as the will file 13 any rebuttal forms that come in with miss spelled words and not proof read! Be a concise as possible on the rebuttal form with as much information as possible starting from the beginning to the end with the outcome from court. The more and correct information on that rebuttal makes it more helpful.

Now as I've seen in here Martin ( Blue Bird) seems to slam everyone who ever walked through their doors!

 

You were following close enough that you were unable to stop before the impact. In their mind, that is following too close. The fact that you made contact with the vehicle ahead of you is all the proof they need that you were either 1) following too close, or 2) not paying attention. Either way, as a result of this wreck they view you as a liability more than an asset.

Remember...

TIP # 1: MAINTAIN A SAFE FOLLOWING DISTANCE

Large trucks need additional space between vehicles to allow for safe braking and unexpected actions. In crashes, large trucks most often hit the vehicle in front of them.
Did You Know? If you are driving below 40 mph, you should leave at least one second for every 10 feet of vehicle length. For a typical tractor-trailer, this results in 4 seconds between you and the leading vehicle. For speeds over 40 mph, you should leave one additional second.
