    Skipper relieved from his post for using official car at weekends

    Seems a bit of overkill to me, he was paying for petroleum etc himself.

    May sound silly but he may not have been insured.

    My ex had a company car and was only allowed/insured to use it between 7 am and 7 pm and never at the weekends. Not sure if this was company policy or insurance limitations.

    Should have tried the US method.

    Just bring your own car along.

    They brought the crews cars up on the Carrier
