Hi..
I'm thinking about CDL school. I have 1 ticket on my DMV record. It's illegal lane change in Jan. 07. Will my choices be limited with that on my record?

 

If that is the only thing on your record it may not make much of a difference to some carriers. I suggest calling some recruiters and ask them. My guess it will have more to do with the circumstances. It could limit you to some degree, but I would still call around. There are some recruiters who frequent this forum. Worst scenario would be that you would need to keep your nose clean and wait until that drops off your record. It usually takes about 3 years.

 

I agree with GMAN.....Check with a number of companies before pursing the CDL....
That particular offense is a serious traffic violation, and is addressed in the FMCSA Part 383

Scroll down to "serious traffic violations" (3)

 

And what happened to the 3 "Driving While Impaired" you stated you had on Feb 29?

Guess you didn't like our answers back then so you just reworded it?

Good catch, baldeagle.
The return of a troll..... :roll:

 

If that is the case it could make a big difference as to whether any company would hire you. I suppose it would come down to them running a criminal background check on you. Some do, others may not. If you have 3 DWI's on you record it will likely be difficult and next to impossible for you to get on with any reputable carrier. They may overlook one, but no more than one. It has been so many years ago, they might not catch it unless they run the criminal background check. The criminal check will get all of it.

 

That's odd. Why would anybody troll such a subject?

 

Just to "stir up" the members, and see how many will take the bait.

 

Sometimes, one must keep asking a question, until they get an answer they want.
You can't always rely upon hearing what you want to hear, when it is in print.

 

Hog, Drew, GMAN. He's all yours.
