Accidents

[PROUD MEMBER]

The following is my opinion and my opinion only. I do not represent the Union or Management. I hear members come over the radio and say things like "I had a minor accident" or "There's no children on the bus" or "There's no damage to the bus." Usually if not 100% of the time the office will say "Call the office." So if unfortunately you are involved in any kind of accident unless it is an emergency or unless for some reason you want others besides the office to hear you instead of going over the radio just stay where you are and call the office. The reason I say this is because sometimes the office will instruct you differently over the phone which may save you complications in the future. Once you go over the air for the most part the office's hands are tied in what they can instruct you do to. As long as you stay put and use the landline instead of the radio, you are not doing anything wrong. Besides like I said they are going to tell you to call the office anyway.
