Ok question folks.
Just got pulled over for speeding. Instead of a specific fine, was told to go see someone in city hall.
I am a CDL holder. I am currently working for the job that requires no CDL though (courier driver). Last time I was fined for speeding was 2006. Last time I had an accident - 2004. Last time I was fined for any moving violation was 2010.
Basically, I'm asking how ###### am I? Will this ticket compromise my hireability (word?) to drive nationwide? How about driving locally as an independent contractor on my own car with no CDL necessary?
Thanks everyone for replies.
Just got a speeding ticket. Got a CDL.

OK, first off S L O W D O W N! (That is obvious, of course, but I just had to say it. . .)
It's going to depend on just how much over you get nailed for. What is this "go see someone in city hall?"
Whatever it is, get it taken care of. Whether you just pay it and move on, or do a not guilty plea, is going to be up to you and should depend on the circumstances. Really the question you ask, can't be answered until this is settled. At least for CDL purposes.
As an independent contractor, using your own car, unless there is more to this and you actually lose your license, the only thing it is likely to effect, is your insurance rate.lovesthedrive and The Challenger Thank this. -
