Can a person be fired from a job that doesn't involving driving for not having auto insurance?

Question:

Person was involved in an accident, their auto insurance had lapsed, the accident was not their fault, the person works for the county and supposedly the supervisor found out about the accident thru the police rpt or court papers. The person I know told me she was let go b/c of this and for having someone take care of a parking ticket she freceived. Sounds a little fishy to me

Answer:
Sounds like she broke the law by not having insurance.

where i am they don't have to give you a reason to be fired . this example shows irresponsibility on character though

some companies write into the terms and conditions that you should have not have a criminal record and this is seen as breach of contract. It depends on the type of business and work involved how strictly this is enforced - e.g cannot have a lawyer with a criminal record

having a drivers lisence and ins is not required for a job unless it entails driving...but yepp it sounds fishy bet theres a lot more to the story

i dont see how her not having insurance on her car is a reason to be fired, unless she was driving a county vehicle or driving her vehicle for work purposes. I worked for the county for a few years and had to show them my license and proof of insurance, as i drove from client to client with my own vehicle and they paid me mileage...sounds like they just canned her for no reason. got a case i would say

If you are not a contracted employee you are a at will employee to rap that up if your not contracted they can fire you for almost any reason with a few exceptions
