Common use of Point System Clause in Contracts

Point System. An employee's eligibility to drive for the Company will be determined by a point system. The point system will also be used to determine an applicant's eligibility for hire. An employee may be considered a NEGLIGENT OPERATOR of a motor vehicle and be subject to termination when his or her driving record shows the following "point count": The DMV keeps a public record of all traffic convictions and accidents for 36 months or longer depending on the type of conviction. Records of more serious convictions, like reckless or drunk driving, are kept for up to seven years. A traffic conviction for driving unsafe counts as one point. Any "at fault" accident also is normally counted as one point. Two points are charged against you if you are convicted of reckless driving, of driving under the influence of alcohol/drugs, of hit-and-run driving, of evading a peace officer, of driving while your license is suspended or revoked, or for driving on the wrong side of the road. This list is not all-inclusive. Any driver with too many "points" may lose his or her driver's license. Serious violations while driving a Company vehicle or a personal vehicle in the course of Company business that may result in immediate termination regardless of the points accumulated include but are not limited to: • Driving under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance. • Involved in a criminal offense involving a motor vehicle. • Driving while one's license or insurance is expired, suspended or revoked. • Having an open container of alcohol in a motor vehicle. • Reckless driving, drag racing or attempting to elude an officer. • Leaving the scene of a collision in which you are involved. No applicant with more than two points on a driving record will be considered for hire or transfer into a driving position. Likewise, applicants with a SERIOUS VIOLATION on their driving records will not be considered for hire.
