One of the city’s Public Works employees is in trouble. A couple of days ago we received a call from a constituent who claimed that as a Public Works truck driver was driving out of a neighborhood, he drive into a street sign, stopped and looked around, then continued to drive on. The person who called followed the driver, who then proceeded to 65mph in a residential area, right across the street from a park. After the driver realized he was caught, he went back to the street sign and reported the accident. If all this is true, that is extremely dangerous. I mean 65mph in a neighborhood! The guy who called wasn’t mad at me (thank God), he was just stunned at what happened. So I e-mailed the Public Works department, and now HR is investigating the incident. The PW employee did receive a Notice of Inquiry, which gives him an opportunity to tell his story. I doubt he will be fired, but I wonder if he will be able to drive anymore.
