    I would think if it stated sign and return that is what I would do. But if I read it right he gave you a form for your company to fill out. So if that is the case, give it to the safety dept. and take your lumps.

    That's how I read it. Not a big deal and if it needs to go to your safety dept. you shouldn't get more than a lump or two...

    What is the requirement of your Safety Department?

    From the federal perspective the answer is no. You are only required to report convictions. A warning is not a conviction.

    From a retired federal DOT official.
