If employment requires driving, the following guidelines apply.

Points

Points are valid on a driving record for only 3 years (unless involving alcohol-related incidents which are held 5 years), then the maximum points a person can have on their record is 4 points in 5 years.

Accidents

Any person cited for being at fault in 2 or more accidents in the last 5 years shall not be considered further for employment.

Any person involved in 4 or more accidents in the last 5 years, even where the person is not at fault, shall not be considered for employment.

Restricted/Suspended Licenses

Furthermore, any person who is or, has been under a restricted driver's license in the last 3 years shall not be considered  for employment.

Finally, any person who has had a revoked or suspended license for reasons that involve the actual operation of a vehicle, or the failure to comply with ordinances and laws governing the operation of a vehicle (non- payment of traffic or parking tickets) over the last 5 years shall not be considered for employment.

This does not include suspensions of a license due to other State Administrative actions such as: Sanctions and/or Fines for events un-related to operating a vehicle. (examples include, but are not limited to: Minor in possession of alcohol- non vehicle related, Non-payment of child support, etc.)

This policy shall only be a consideration in positions where the operation of a motorized vehicle is a duty or is a tool used during the random course of every day employment for business travel during county time or used in the transportation of people and or materials as a duty of employment.

THE ABOVE STATEMENTS ARE NOT TO BE CONSTRUED AS AN EXHAUSTIVE LIST OF ALL AREAS TO BE CONSIDERED, OTHER SITUATIONS MAY APPLY
