Well, I never pleaded guilty to it. I went to court for it and tried to fight it myself and lost. The officer who issued it told me it was no big deal, to ask the judge and the judge would set something up so it wouldn't appear on my record. Me being stupid, went to court, said this and the judge looked over at the officer, who said "NOPE, HE DID IT" and bam, down went the hammer. I should have brought an attorney.
Also, went to a few places in person today aaaaaaaand, got an interview at a smaller construction company on Monday! Very excited about it. One place I went to I applied right then and there, the owner was there and he explained how the biggest thing hurting me isn't even the work experience, it's that #### 15+ ticket. Said if it wasn't for that he'd hire me, he did mention something about after 2 years people won't care as much? It'll be 2 years in 1 month... Anywho, I'm hoping for the best at this interview on Monday. Would not mind working for this place at all, the dude was super nice and it's really close to where I live which is nice because I live in the North Valley and REALLY don't want to live in the East Valley.
Thanks for all the helpful advice here, I appreciate it.
Any Hope to continue my career?

Good luck with your interview. Keep us posted?

Thanks, will do!

OKKKKKKKKKKKK
You were found guilty. You got your legal advice from a cop who busted you and could give a sheet about your life. What isn't plain enough in the DOT book about violations that you don't understand? 15+ makes you undesirable to all except some scuzz ball outfit. -
Paper copy of MV report + photoshop....or.....PDF copy + Acrobat. (No, I'm not being serious.)

Getting a good paying local trucking job is a lot harder than getting an OTR job!

Good luck Monday.But keep in mind even though the interview went well,you still have that 15 over speeding ticket.I imagine his insurance company makes the final call on you getting hired.Too cold here for construction otherwise id be applying.
