    I recommend people who want to go fast visit a drag strip most major cities have them even my small town has one and I use it occasionally. perfectly legal now if you destroy your vehicle, that's on you. Just remember no insurance will pay you driving and wrecking on a drag strip saw a beautiful Dodge Viper wreck out and realize insurance wouldn't cover it and he was lucky as hell he should got a lottery ticket he should had died as many times it rolled he had no cage and anyone who knows them they dont have hard tops in his model since his was a early version not that it would had mattered he had a punctured lung and many other things happen.

    Put yourself in their shoes , if you had a choice between a driver with a clean record and one with a dirty record who would you choose. Good luck to you , but you my have to wait until stuff comes off your record.

    When you get your CDL it’s your responsibility. POV or Driving at work. It’s what you sign up for. If you get tickets, expect yourself to be out of work. Especially in this economy. 3 years. Then you’re kinda starting over again cause of work gap. It’s your choice if you want to go poor. Time to drive like a little old lady in your car. If you have a CDL. If you can’t change those habits don’t get a CDL. I’m not saying for the OP but for people who want to get into trucking.

    Where are you located?
    I can think of a few companies:
    1) Metropolitan (think they're now owned by PAM) allows up to 20 over
    2) Robert Bearden Inc says no more than 19 over
    3) Bulkomatic used to allow 19 over but that may have changed

    It's amazing the effort people put into nonsense threads.
