    @Chinatown please advise me where to go. Nothing on my DAC but former employer spills beans everytime a potential employer call to verify employement. I live in Houston TX.

    Four preventable accidents in a year!?!? Errr maybe you need to find a different line of work. Not every one is cut out to be a driver. You may love it and think you want to do this but you might want to think about it more. Look things do happen in this industry but four accidents in a year is a bit excessive.

    They are "minor incidents" not "accidents." Refer to them as such.

    If there's no witnesses, it didn't happen.
    Clean MVR and 4 minor incidents; you're in good shape. Keep submitting applications and keep it simple; don't volunteer anything that isn't asked for; nothing dishonest about that.

    You must be showing "accidents" on the applications. You were fired for some "minor incidents" on private property.

    Hilarious, why can't you do your own research? There's a ton of trucking websites.
    Cdljobs.com class a jobs.com ect. ect.
    You obviously have internet access.
