Company wants accident report from my current employer.

Ive bee applying to several trucking companies and the company I'm most interested in working for wants an accident report from my current employer, which is not a trucking company. I was not at fault in the accident, and it doesn't show up on my driving record or my DOT record (according to the recruiter). When I asked my employer, it didn't sound like they even filed a report and I'm kind of lost. How do I go about getting a report from my employer? Or do I need to get one from CHP?

 

Nope. I don't want to lie about anything, I'm just not that type of person. The company I'm currently working for is just completely unorganized and no one wants to help. I went and got a copy of the police report and I'm planning on turning that in.

 

Yes, I mentioned it absentmindedly when the recruiter called me. Can't do anything about it now, but I wasn't at fault so I'm not worried about it.

What sort of driving record do they pull? I live in CA and got a copy of mine online and there isn't anything on it. Will companies go more in-depth than a DMV MVR/driving record?

 

$10 at the California Highway Patrol office...

 

Gotcha, thanks for the info. I just pulled the website driving record, would it be a good idea to request my "official" driving record. Or is there any difference between the two?
