no, its illegal as it is not your fault

We do not have a great deal of information here, but all accidents are at least partially your fault. The company may terminate you if they determine it is your fault and driving is part of your job.

Normally one accident will not cause termination unless it is gross negligence or you are a very new employee. If it is your third accident, then termination would be reasonable.

Is it legal to suspend an employee without pay in Montana for getting in a vehicle accident in a company car?

Yes, it is legal. Check the company manual, if there's one. Getting in an at fault accident with a company vehicle may even cost you your job, sorry to say that. However, you have a good shot at the unemployment hearing if you loose your job. An accident is involuntary action, which is not considered a misconduct. Bottom line, it depends on what caused the accident.

Can you get terminated from your job for having kidney failure?

I don't think that just because a person's kidney has failed, he will be terminated from his job. Because it is not a kind of communicable disease that will pass from one employ to another. A person's efficiency in job is not counted from his disease, he have. But the quality and quantity of work he does in his office. So, if someone is fit to do the job, he/she will not be terminated from his job.
