Jacked up DAC.....How long to wait for driver job????

I appreciated the comments, but let me clarify the case. The "major" accident happened in Dec, and I was running out of hours. I spotted a place to shut down, but saw it too late. I was turning around in a parking lot, I thought big enough for the truck AND trailor, but it wasn't. I hit the overhang and did damage to the trailer. The police was kind and said he wasn't going to write it up. I called the proper people and was put on "probation" for six months. The second accident was; I was told that I ran over some grass and left the scene, I was approached by a couple in an SUV, who said that I destroyed the landscape. I stopped, checked out the trailer, landing gear, airlines, etc... everything was good and I continued on, got to my next stop, told my dm what had happened and heard nothing else about it. The third, happened on new year's eve, in a side road near the Pilot in Bath, NY around rt53 and rt 54 off of 415. A snow covered four foot drainage ditch helped me blow out a tire. I paid the tow and finished my route. I was told to put the truck in the shop, and 18 days later, let go. My csa2010 was, and still to this day, clear to my knowledge, ( W.E. pulled it up during orientation in Feb)

I admit that I am not " a GREAT DRIVER, " or even " A Good Driver" but I don't feel that I will continue to make those mistakes, I paniced. None of you that started out in totally new career, NEVER MADE A MISTAKE????, the question was asked "would I hire me?" given the situation, I would ask about them, hear what the explaination is, weight it out. if the insurance would allow, and I have the need, then YES!!!, (But we know that the insurance would be too high, in my case,) I will also re-train, train, and re-train the heck out of me, until I am satisfied that I could drive and back. If that means keeping me out with a trainer for 300-350 hours at peanuts, so be it. if I want the position, I must do whatever it takes, we are in a recession, freight and moving it is recession-proof, or so I've been told. There may not be alot at times, but I still see trucks traveling down the highways. I will learn to be a "safe driver". I haven't hit any other trucks,cars, or people. Curbs, overhangs, grass and such, I still have to work on that.

 

Yeah, I will be in the future, as a matter of fact, when I was at WXS, I went slower, in driving 2-3 miles under the limit, the trainer got upset and said that I wasn't keeping up with traffic, or "can you do the speed limit" or tell me what the limit was, when I saw the posted sign. I didn't think that going 63 in a 65, or 67 in a 70, would be so bad, but apparently I was mistaken.
