Passage Three
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 inRiverside,California.
Not paying attention to his driving,
McLaughlin turned right on main street and33rd streetand hita Volkswagen Rabbit.
This caused minor damage to his truck and serious damageto the car.
On the basis of the police report,
the Loomis Accident Committee correctly determined
that McLaughlin had been quite careless. As a result ofthe committee’s conclusion,
the branch manager Mr David Rossi reported
that he had talked with McLaughlin about his extremelypoor driving record.
Further evidence of McLaughlin’s irresponsibilityoccurred on May 6
when he was returning from his shift.
That day he ran into a roll-up door at the Loomisfacility in Valero,
causing significant damage to the door. Damage to thetruck,
however, was minor. Finally, on June 7,
McLaughlin once again demonstrated his carelessness byknocking
down several mailboxes near the edge of the company’sparking 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 warnedMcLaughlin
that three preventable accidents in one year
could lead to his discharge, as indeed it should.
Questions 23 to 25 are based on the passage you have justheard.
23. What did the Loomis Accident Committee
find out about the accident that occurred on March 13?
24. What did McLaughlin do on June 7 near the edge of thecompany’s parking lot?
