I will be starting with a company training program and I am worried about a suspended license from 15 years ago.. I think it was from not paying a parking ticket or a speeding ticket. Will that be a problem?

Maybe, maybe not. In any case, it would probably be best to tell your prospective employer about it right up front. You could pull your own DMV copy, and see if it is on there or not. But I suppose even if it isn't, that they could find out about it some way.
Since it is from 15 years ago, and if in fact it was for a FTP, then my guess is you have nothing to worry about.MJ1657, road_runner, mje and 1 other person Thank this. -
Solid advice from Big Don but more then likely 15 years ago isn't going to raise any red flags.
If most companies went back that far it would be tough to hire people.mje Thanks this. -
You will be alright dude.
mje and Ghost Ryder Thank this. -
Thanks for the replies! I will call and ask about it tomorrow before I head out to training.
mje Thanks this. -
Thanks rage.. I wasn't to worried but thought I would ask.. Btw I'm not a dude, lol.

Dumb question maybe, but how long was the suspension? Even if it was just FTP, if you let it drag out for years before you could get it reinstated, it could be a bigger issue than if you got it fixed quick.
mje Thanks this. -
It isn't a dumb question at all, Ed. But there can be a lot of variables there. Just as an example: Somebody gets a ticket and before he pays it, he is deployed somewhere. Totally forgets about the ticket, and upon returning stateside, goes for a number of years without having a traffic violation, so his license isn't checked on. Then when he goes to renew his license, bam, he finds out it has been suspended. That is just one of very many ways that a person could have a suspended license, and not even know about it. Sure the state will, or is supposed to, notify you if you are suspended. But things happen, stuff gets lost in the mail, DMV clerks don't do their jobs, etc.mje Thanks this.

When a state suspends your license for nonpayment, they typically put an indefinite suspension into effect until the fines are paid, as well as the reinstatement fees for your license and driving privilege - when a state suspends your license, they also suspend your driving privilege, as well.
So my question... did your license get suspended, you paid the fees, and had everything reinstated? Or did you never pay the fine and the fees which you accrued?mje Thanks this.
