    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.
