DealersEdge Daily Headlines
Here’s a new policy to add to your dealership employee handbook: “Dealership employees are not permitted to use customers’ vehicles for drag racing, especially if the vehicle is a police car.” Add it to the list of infractions that are cause for immediate termination. Can’t happen? It did.
The police in Estevan, Canada received a complaint last week that one of their patrol cars was seen drag racing with a truck on a back road near the town, reports the Carnduff Leader-Post.
Upon investigating the complaint, the police found that one of their patrol cars had been sent for repairs at a local dealership.
A service technician had taken the police car for a test drive. At the same time, a second technician had taken a new 3/4-ton truck for a test drive. Police said the two mechanics have been charged for racing under the Traffic Safety Act.
In case you’re curious, the police car won the race against the 3/4-ton truck.
