    Wait you were doing 22 over the speed limit and decided you could actually drive safely? wtf? ok enough of the bashing. I believe you will need to wait atleast another year and a half to let that ticket fade away. You know like your lead foot has also faded away if your smart... My ticket of 10 over is now 2 years and 5 months old and is still keeping me at my current company. You can always apply at other places. Don'e let anyone stop you from trying. I have 14 years and 7 months driving experience and still don't listen to steering wheel holders.

    Grow up bro? Im 50 yo/w 5 grandkids and another on the way.I got a call from a neighbor telling me someone was breaking into my garage.Would you have been in a hurry?At any rate a moot point as I got a better job last week.Better truck better pay and home 2 days a week.Perseverance and hard work and burnin up the internet pay off!!!

    nothing your saying makes sence. You didn't tell the cop your garage was being broke into? Your neighbor call you and not the cops? Let's say the cop didn't believe you, wrote the ticket anyway. You didn't go to court to get it reduced or explain to them what happened? You got cdl after all this and thought what? that companies wouldn't notice it? Sorry "bro" this doesn't sound like a 50yr olds thinking but congrats on your families fertility
