FAILED TO OBEY A TRAFFIC CONTROL DEVICE

@brian991219 can help on this one.

 

I believe that’s a non moving violation.

 

That is absolutely a moving violation. It's the same as running a red light or stop sign. Insurance companies treat this one worse than a speeding ticket. People speed absent mindedly, but "disregarded" or "failed to obey" is saying that a conscious choice was made.

Don't jump the weigh station. Park until it closes. Route around it. Don't jump it.

 

They will see it as a moving violation. It's not a reckless driving violation. It' won't be on your MVR unless you got a ticket in addition to the inspection report.

 

With 2 years clean, it is not a deal breaker.

Most insurance carriers allow 1 or 2 'moving violations and one 'at-fault' accident.

Did you examine the roadside report you sent on to your company?

You mentioned 'citation' so I'm asking if that word appears in the report.

Some states ticket by mail so if the report says Citation No 25-00234; a ticket may be in the mail.

Anyway, I've never had someone with JUST this infraction denied by any of the insurance carriers I worked with.

 

If it happened in a different state from your license it may take a few weeks or months from the final court date to make it on your mvr. Or it might never make your MVR, it's supposed to but some states don't talk so good, and some don't listen too good, and some don't do either.

 

That is an offense that motor carriers gove a high weight to although if your record is otherwise clear it shouldn't cost you the chance at the new job. Also, if the prospective new emoyer doesn't pull a PSP report they may not know about it.

A violation on a inspection report is not a conviction or citation.
