    If safety already cleared a new person to prime, and you were told that you were accepted. why would they ask you all over again.

    First, since it's in your own handwriting, there's no question about what's on there from a legal standpoint. Second, many folks who are trying to lie their way into a motor carrier won't get the same lies on the handwritten application that they put on the online app a number of weeks back. Easy-peasy... catch 'em in their own lies.

    So... you might ask, Why would one lie? Easy answer... because they think they can get away with hiding a bad MVR, accidents, tickets, firings, criminal histories... etc.

    Just concerned that safety didn't do a criminal background check before they cleared me. Don't want to get springfield just to have them say no.

    should I call safety on Monday and ask them. They asked on the online app about my background. But it was very specific questions. Like have you ever been convicted of druck driving or drugs or things of that nature. They didn't ask were you ever convicted of a misdameaner or a felony in the last so many years.

    If you walk in late, you may well be told to leave. As in go home.

    Call your recruiter 'n fess up. Unless it was recent or violent, it probably won't be a big deal.
