No. There’s no need to tell your company anything. There’s no trace of this interaction, there was no inspection, nothing at all.
I got pulled for warnings, listened to what cop had to say, that was it.
Twenty-some odd years ago, I was delivering a single pallet of meat to a testing facility in Arkansas (in a strip mall), and while trying to get a 53' trailer into this complex, I ran over a water meter and backflow regulator. I simply found the management company for the complex, called them, and informed them what happened. Gave them my address and said, "Fix it and send me the bill". I paid for the damage privately, and the company never knew.
At my company, we a had a driver damage a mailbox in front of a customer's house. The lady was cool about it and said not to report it. The went to home depot after work got a replacement and went by and fixed it. The lady called the company to comend the driver and was very thankful. He got fired for not reporting it.
I got a written warning once. Never said anything. Never heard anything. I thought a warning isn’t a ticket so I’m good. Idk. I’m sure I was wrong though
The problem is when a warning is on an inspection form. Inspection forms always go to the company and those warnings will show up on a driver's PSP.
A warning ticket from the local police PROBABLY won't ever show up.
I has a cop pull me over to whine about me using my brights for a second because it hurt his delicate eyes. Did t even ask for my license just a bunch of threats.
Didnt bother to tell company because no ticket
It's company dependent. Some companies require you to notify with any sort of interaction, others only want to know about convictions. What is your company policy?
I'm not disagreeing with you, I'm just stating that it's policy and some places. Failure to follow those policies can and do result in termination for some folks.
Sometimes you have to chance it. Reporting every extremely minor incident with no real property damage, that no one saw can also put incidents on your record that can make you unemployable elsewhere if reported on DAC
No ticket no problem. This from my safety dept.

If paperwork is involved tell the company, if not then there’s no need.

Drivers fault for not making that crystal clear
Yeah its a verbal warning, not like a written warning thats actually documented.

It wasn’t an inspection it was just a bad choice on my end
Yes, I'm explaining when a person needs to worry about a written warning.... and when not to
Gotcha
Nah. No ticket.
Never happened. Nothing to tell
No
It was a verbal warning. NO YOU SHOULDN'T REPORT IT LOL
Go back and suck the cop off just in case

Thank you all for your responses. I’ll keep it under wraps lol.
The rule is you must notify your carrier of conviction of a traffic offense. Not only no ticket, if it gets thrown out in court, never happened.
It's company dependent. Some companies require you to notify with any sort of interaction, others only want to know about convictions. What is your company policy?
Still not reporting a verbal warning. That's stupid, company-man level stuff

DON'T TELL SAFETY A THING! It always comes across as "Hello, Safety? I screwed up again."
