Scared as hell.

Just got my first citation and only been on the road without a trainer for a month.

I had taken a back road route to my customer and then literally a mile before the customer the road changed to a 5 ton weight limit. And there were two other options to try and turn on. But it was really tight and no way to turn around so I decided to try and go through. Unfortunately for me there was an officer in the road and I wasn’t literally less than 100000 feet from the customer at the end of the road.... he said it wouldn’t affect my csa or my points and that I should check if my company has a permit that allows me to drive through. Which I know it doesn’t... that being the case. Does this mean I will get points and all too...oh it was a 750$ fine... I have drivers legal plan. But I’m not even sure how it works and safety at my company is gone till Tuesday and drivers legal plan closed until Monday. I’m freaking out....

 

Okay it wa literally like across the street is what I mean. Less than a minute of driving to get to security. But yeah. I’m not worried about the money. I’m worried about my place within my company...

 

I understand plenty of work lol. But I really am happy with this company that I’m with right now and I don’t want to lose it no matter what. Given my explanation. Do you guys think this is something that would be taken as a termination? Or more of just a strong talking to..?

 

Normally I always check over my gps route with my atlas but today I didn’t since I was cutting time really close...
