Preventable or not?

He lost control and sideswiped another vehicle, his words. Too fast for conditions, CMV or pov doesn't matter.

 

If he was not cited I was say it was non-preventable. Warnings don't show up on a mvr

 

I guarantee a trucking company would list it as preventable.

 

I'm more inclined to put it down as "Preventable" with a full explanation and let the chips fall where they may. You may win points for honesty, as opposed to a loss for a perceived "omission".

Just my pfennigs worth.

 

I would definatly say it was preventable. You were traveling too fast for conditions. you should have slowed down. Losing control of your vehicle Is preventable, by slowing down.

 

Change your story, tell them the car lost control in front of you. Its a lie, but, you`ll have to live with it.

 

Why didn't you just pull your MVR? It's like $20-30 bucks. If you find the ticket number on the report, head to your DMV and inquire about the ticket to get the information you need. Maybe you lost this job opportunity but there are hundreds more.
