I had a foot in the door at Western Express when my recruiter called and told me the bad news: 313 PSP points (!).
243 were from my previous employer (broken down old truck that seemed to attract DOT Attention )
But i scored a log violation that resulted in a forced 10 hr shutdown. 23 pts tripled to 69. It was that that sunk me. Their hiring limit is 50...
Max PSP points acceptable?

The thing is it shows a pattern. If there is one. Don't have a pattern of getting "I don't do my job" inspections and you will be fine.

I can't find how many points I have.
Single inspection
250 over on drives
No trailer Registration
I looked at the booklet but didn't see these two. -
Cattleman84, VolunteerTrucker and dwells40 Thank this.

Yeah. Now I have a total of 56 points. Any recommendations on where I need to apply that will accept my points
-
It's the type of violations, not the total number of made up points that don't exist that matter.Cattleman84 Thanks this. -
No such thing as PSP points... Companies get CSA points, drivers get a list of inspections (both clean and those with Violations), and accidents on thier PSP Report, but no points are assigned to PSP.

I don't think they could have made it more convoluted if they tried.
Sixela918 Thanks this. -
What does go on a record is moving violations. You get three of those and you are basically unhireable.
