Speeding tickets

Posted by HelloImChris86@reddit | Truckers | View on Reddit | 6 comments

Just need advice or well, a question answered.

I have two speeding tickets, with one being 17 over and the other one WAS 19 over but knocked down to 13 over and I'm currently on probation till I pay the latter ticket off.

Any chances that I can get a driving job still? I DO have my CDL and both tickets were in a POV. Thanks.

That's a lot of CSA points any prospective employer would pick up by hiring you, man...

I'll definitely look into the driving school.

Defo check out driving school, ask the judge about it if you can to get both removed. Be honest about what happened. If they let you it’s like a 4 HR class, lots of videos and an unnecessary aggressive state trooper making you watch it. Turn in the receipt to the court and in 30 days after the payment the violation will be removed from your record.

You could but NGL you might be cooked, 20+ over x2 AND probation?

BUT!! Most states offer driving school programs, it’s pretty expensive but it clears your record 100%. I would ask about that if you can. Source- 15 MPH over & 11 MPH over.

It depends on how recent the violations were, and if they are on your current driving record.

Personally, I highly doubt that our insurance carrier would insure you in our trucks, assuming one or both tickets are on your record.
