It is the responsibility of employee’s assigned Company vehicles to maintain necessary records in order
to identify other drivers of their car who may have been responsible for a road traffic offence affecting
them or their vehicle. It is the employee's duty to inform a Manager immediately of any accidents,
which occur including any penalty points endorsed on their driving licence. Any driver who loses their
driving licence or receives an endorsement must immediately advise the Company, as this may have
to be disclosed to the Insurance Company.
