Remedial training records show 'very poor' road-test rating; staff pulled operator from driving for follow-up

Fleet training records (exhibit D9 and D3) were entered into the hearing record and examined by the commission. Instructors documented patterns of inattentiveness, delayed reaction time and difficulties with speed control. Training managers said remedial sessions were used to coach drivers and that Wilkerson received follow-up observations; a consolidated remedial-road-test score placed him in the lowest category, which the fleet manager labeled "very poor."

That training record and the remedial evaluation were used by DPW to show a continuing performance problem despite prior corrective steps; union witnesses pointed to other mitigating evaluations (PIP) that they said showed improvement.
