I've been driving for less than 6 months and I had two accidents, Two tickets for one incident, and four delivery times I was late for. The points against me were called astronomical by my DM. I am lucky to not have been fired. What can I do to salvage my trucking job?

What are you doing that is causing you to be late to appointments? If you are hanging out at truck stops, then stop. If it's because you are waiting till you are going to get there just in time, well then leave sooner.

Try to learn from your mistakes and pay closer attention to detail when you do things. Try to work on trip planning a little better too. If you feel that you won t make it on time, DO NOT wait until the last minute to say something to your dispatcher, but learn to communicate ahead of time
Wild Murphy Thanks this. -
Maybe you are having issues with stress? I would be at my breaking point if I were you.

Find out is you are really sleeping or if you have brain fog. Your body can cause one to be unable to observe properly and when this is happening one often has attention and sleep problems. Google a little and see if something fits you.
