(Code 2006, § 2-3-11, updated 1/16/2024) 12 C reated: 2023 -03-28 13:05:50 [EST] ( Supp. No. 1) Page 1 of 2 Sec. 2-170. Official oath and bond. (a) Authority.

No municipal judge of the town shall be paid a salary for any time during the term during which the municipal judge has not executed and filed the required bond. (Code 2006, § 2-4-21) State law reference(s)—Official oaths and bonds, Wis. Stats. § 19.01; validity of surety bonds, Wis. Stats. § 632.17; oath and bond of municipal court judge, Wis. Stats. § 755.03; official oaths and bonds of town officers, Wis. Stats. § 60.31. 14 C reated: 2023 -03-28 13:05:50 [EST] ( Supp. No. 1) Page 1 of 3 Sec. 2-175. Driving town vehicles. (a) Establish written MVR review criteria. Drivers who operate Town of Peshtigo vehicles are required to provid e a copy of their license annually. An employees' past driving record is one predictor of future driving behavior. As part of the annual driver license review, the DMV should be contacte d to provide a motor vehicle report (MVR). A criterion should be established to evaluate a driver's ongoing accident and violation history. A M VR review policy should be clearly defined, consistently enforced and used as a tool for management to evaluate the driving records of employees which allows them to take action in the event a driving record shows a negative trend. (b) Motor vehicle report review guideline. Recommendations for fleet safety driver criteria are ideally designed for a comprehensive internally operated and maintained program. The goal is to identify and correct 'at risk' drivers before there is a serious accident or incident. The included mater ial is to provide guidance and examples to assist in developing a plan best suited for client needs. (c) Annual MVR review. Annual MVR reviews should be done for all drivers (including non- employee drivers if applicable). The following criteria can be used as a suggested evaluation tool for annual MVR reviews: 1. Clean record - No action. 2. One moving violation - Discussion/evaluation with fleet manager (DUI type of infraction could result in immediate termination depending on severity and past history). 3. One collision - No fault - No action. 4. One collision - Preventable collision - Discussion/evaluation with fleet manager plus semi-annual (or more frequent) review of MVR. 5. Moving violation - Discussion/evaluation with fleet manager and possibly including a semi- annual review of MVR. 6. One collision and one moving violation - Probation for one year, quarterly review of driving record (depending on severity and past history). 7. More than one moving violation - Possible suspension of driving privileges (or severe warning of suspension). Increase MVR review frequency. 8. Two or more driver preventable collisions - Termination of driving or other significant management intervention/action. 9. Two moving violations and one collision - Termination of driving privileges or other significant management intervention/action. It should be noted that suspension of driving privileges can be reviewed. If agreed upon by all parties, a driving contract can be drafted which stipulates specific controls to be followed. If contract is broken, driving privileges can be forfeited. (d) High risk drivers. Drivers can be classified as "high risk drivers" if the MVR review indicates, or it is otherwise determined that the driver has one or more of the following violations, or if the insurance company declines coverage for the driver for any reason. 1. Conviction for an alcohol and/or drug related driving offense. 2. Refusal to submit to a blood alcohol content (BAC) test or drug test. 3. Conviction for reckless driving. 4. Any combination of three or more moving violations, preventable collisions, or "at fault" accidents over a three-year period (or other appropriate time period agreed upon by management). 15 Created: 2023-03-28 13:05:50 [EST] (Supp. No. 1) Page 2 of 3 5. Suspension, revocation, or administrative restriction of driver's license over a three -year period. 6. Leaving the scene of an accident as defied by state laws. 7. At fault in a fatal accident. 8. Felony committed/convicted involving a vehicle. 9. Three or more "company vehicle" physical damage claims in a 12-month period (or other appropriate frequency/amount period agreed upon by management). (e) Management controls for high risk drivers. The employee's manager should consider suspending all company driving privileges immediately upon identification of a high risk driver. The "high risk driver" should not be authorized to drive a company owned motor vehicle at any time, or should not be c onsidered to drive their personal vehicle on company business. The employee's manager may either transfer the employee to a position that does not require driving, if such a position exists, or the employee may be subject to discipline up to and including termination of employment. The employee may reapply for company vehicle driving privileges after one year of suspension and completion of an approved defensive driver training class (as an example of a re- entry program). An application can be made to the employee's manager, and must be approved by the appropriate company review committee (example - Collision Review Board). If approved, the employee's driving status can change from suspension to probation (or other applicable status). Reinstatement of driving privileges may not consti tute an offer by the company for any position that involves driving a company vehicle. A position opening must exist and normal job posting procedures must be followed. (f) MVR evaluation. This sample "point" or "violation" method can be useful in determining a formalized MVR evaluation approach for management in charge of fleet vehicle operations. The evaluation guide can be manipulated and adjusted to best meet company driver situations. However, the point system correlates with the 'minor to major' violation severity. Other classifications can be added (or subtracted) as needed. Again, this is meant to be a useful aid and guide only. Each Violation Points or Violations a. Driving without a license (i.e., never had a valid license vs. "left at home") 10 Major b. Driving while license is suspended or revoked 10 Major c. D.W.I. 10 Major d. D.U.I.N. (narcotics) 10 Major e. Any "serious" violation from 1 to 10 mph over speed limit 6 Major f.
