So I paid a traffic lawyer 500 bucks for nothing then? They said they will either dismiss it or get it deferred because of my record and I was in my POV. This is almost not even worth having a cdl to deal with this. At least with no cdl I could take defensive driving.

Some states sure will,
do you feel lucky , do ya ???? -
Did you hire a lawyer that knows the CDL laws? Seriously, ask your lawyer exactly what his legal argument is going to be to help you get the ticket dismissed/deferred. -
Yeah he's a 10 year traffic attorney/former judge. I'm guessing maybe he will get the violation moved down to a non-moving violation and I pay a fine or maybe he's hoping the cop wont show up for trial...who knows. Oh well I'm setting my cruise control to 5 under everywhere for the rest of my life. Also, I work for a municipality and have to keep a current class a cdl. Will this violation come up on a standard pre-employment driving records check?

First of all...educate yourself....You politely NEVER discuss ANYTHING concerning the violation with the officer...PERIOD!!! It helps to put yourself in third person in ALL adversarial situations. DON"T LET YOUR EMOTIONS BECOME INVOLVED! I'm not going to go into some exhaustive rant here but,....here's a little something for you and all that read this post to investigate for themselves and then apply to their situation as they feel capable. Google "ucc 1-308 without prejudice" This isn't something your gonna get overnite,...BUT,...if you are willing to apply yourself and learn this material, which I feel that anyone with enough intelligence to figure out how to use a computer to be reading this post is capable of, you will have positioned yourself to defend yourself in most all legal situations. This is empowering information, Take your time to learn it and apply it!... Understand this,...this whole truck transportation thing is a serious game....You have to play to win, to do that you have to know the rules..how to apply them,...how to manipulate them to your advantage. You can believe your opposition is out there to relieve you of your hard-earned cash. HOWEVER, They make mistakes,....all the time....Educate yourself....Lawyers? are you kidding me? They are part of the opposition's club....But look, I understand that not every individual will have the confidence of ability to represent themselves,...and those are the individuals that are at the mercy of the system....Good luck with your case...
