I think Knight screwed me again! u tell me.

Wrong, Wrong, Wrong. You did have an accident. It was your fault. Reported to DOT or the police is beside the point. You damaged a truck. If you had not reported it to the company and it had been spotted by a mech or some one else then it would have been even worse. They put on your DAC that you had an accident because you did.

 

You did the right thing by reporting it, versus not reporting it. Remember-you did have an accident and did damage and you were sent for a pee test. Take the loss and be more careful next time. Imagine how much worse it would have been if you didn't say anything. Your DAC would say much worse. These things happen on a daily basis with every company, you will be fine.

 

So how did they screw you? You had an accident, and admitted as much to them. Of course it's gonna go on your DAC. I'm not seeing where you got screwed.

 

Accident: Truck or trailer hits or is hit by any thing else. Movable or fixed object. Be it drivers fault or not. Regardless of amount of damage done.

You hit a fixed object and did damage to the truck. That makes it a driver fault, preventable accident. G.O.A.L You then did the right thing and reported it. Had you failed to report it and it was discovered at a latter date. You would have been fired for not reporting it and that would look really bad on your DAC.

You do not need to sign anything, They don't need to fix anything. It happened. You did it, Now except it and move on.

I was told that Knight does not report anything under $XXXX amount.

I guess Knight lied to me as well on that.
