He never said it was on an inspection form nor did he indicate it was during an inspection. All he asked about was being issued a "written warning". He didn't indicate what it was for nor how it was issued nor what the warning was for. It could'a been for a seat belt or speeding from any number of many sources from a trooper to a village cop. It could'a been for no CDL or no DOT physical.... any number of things but he didn't say. It could'a been in his personal vehicle. He didn't say, so neither did I in my initial reply.
Written warning worse than an actual citation?

Now the next question would be how much over the speed limit did he write it for? 1-5 miles over is supposed to carry zero CSA points in speeding. It would be interesting if these inspectors have found an end-around to that by issuing warnings that would negatively affect those drivers who are speeding in the 1-5 pre-points threshold.
This is why I run 2-3 miles below the speed limit always. Protect the CDL which is worth $1 million dollars over trying to gamble making a few hundred dollars over the same period by speeding and possibly losing the whole license for 60-90 days for too many tickets/points. Once a CDL driver loses their licence, boom no company will touch them for 3-5 years. So speeding can cost a whole lot more than the little few hundred dollars that might be gained by doing so. -
I call BS, never had a warning show up on MVR.
