    Oh man I just got three tickets at weigh station. 1. Was over weight on rear axle, but officer let me fix the tandems. 2. Log check showed 30 min over from a few days back. 3. Didn't have contacts in. The officer said that these are just warning tickets and no fines. Will these appear on my dac/mvr report ?

    No, not on your DAC/MVR. And not on your CSA scores either......(unless you received an inspection and they were listed on the inspection)

    No. I received a warning ticket two years ago and nothing came of it. Thank your lucky stars, that officer must have been in a good mood. There are a few good ones out there.

    I had a similar situation with going a whole mile an hour above the speed limit in Ohio on US-30 between beaverdam and Massillion. The cop gave me a warning ticket and my company saftey director told me it would be some CSA points.
    But I've yet to see them show up.

    Take what you hear about warning tickets with a grain of salt, I think.

    I'm 99% sure they do. Ive gotten a bunch of warnings and a couple tickets. Everything shows up on the safer website a month later.

    No, your career is not ruined. The mega-refrigerated carriers may not hire you but many other companies will. Put your location on your profile; this will help if you need another job, so we can help you.
