On March 13, while on duty, Charles McLaughlin, a very careless driver employed by the company Lummis, was involved in another accident. The accident occurred in Riverside California. Not paying attention to his driving, McLaughlin turned right on main street in 33rd street and hit a Volkswagen Rabbit. This caused minor damage to his truck and serious damage to the car. On the basis of the police report, the Lummis Accident Committee correctly determined that McLaughlin had been quite careless. As a result of the committee’s conclusion, the branch manager Mr David Rossi reported that he had talked with McLaughlin about his extremely poor driving record. Further evidence of McLaughlin’s irresponsibility occurred on May 6 when he was returning from his shift. That day he ran into a roll-up door at the Lummis facility in Valero, causing significant damage to the door. Damage to the truck, however, was minor. Finally, on June 7, McLaughlin once again demonstrated his carelessness by knocking down several mailboxes near the edge of the company’s parking lot. There was damage to the mailboxes and minor damage to the truck. Mr David Rossi stated that he had spoken with McLaughlin on several occasions about his driving record. He added that he had warned McLaughlin that three preventable accidents in one year could lead to his discharge, as indeed it should.
23. What did the Lummis Accident Committee find out about the accident that occurred on March 13?
24. What did McLaughlin do on June 7 near the edge of the company’s parking lot?
