Past Driving Record at 17, will it effect my chances?

As soon as you get a class start date, contact those companies and as if they'll hire you at graduation.
Which town/city are you in; maybe get some good leads from drivers on this forum that live near you.

I don't think this will be something that will prevent you from getting a CDL. If you currently have a drivers license today you can get a CDL. That part your OK. Since you did not have a CDL when you got that ticket you are not going to have problems with 383.51. Also since you really have to account for only a 3-year employment history I would CAREFULLY read those questions before you answer them. I would imagine you will be OK with the average carrier. However, some of the better carriers won't touch you right now with that reckless. No matter what happens slow down. YOU can't afford a 15+ over speeding ticket or a reckless once you get a CDL. 383.51 lists the things that can get your CDL suspended.
