1st speeding violation

I think by law, you have to report to your company within one week of getting your ticket, or ASAP. Which is in every respect dumb on anybody's account. Since you have it off, you still have to tell your company everything. Trying to hide something is a terminating offense. The reason for that is if you're a company driver, you have to be insurable.

 

yes you are correct if my memory serves me well.so if the ticket is not on driving record,surely the company will not and most importantly,can not,use it against a driver.hopefully the OP will keep us advised.

 

read post number 10.

case closed........

 

so another driver might be enlightened by reading ALL of this thread.case reopened for educational purposes.There are many variables associated w/a big ticket in a cmv, not to mention thru a construction zone, and our OP got very lucky,rightfully so,but still was fortunate.

BIG TRUCKS=BIG BUCKS regardless.$600 was not cheap but very well worth it. lesson learned for op and any driver reading this thread.

 

Oh, IMO, it's the Counties. Like with mine, the diversion fee was 50 bucks as a donation to the City Park Fund. They could care less about what the Feds want, IMO. It's all about money for their city or county. I was just shocked it was so cheap. The lady said I could pay more, of course, but for speeding tickets, it's a $50 donation. lol Of course, I still had to pay the fine and court cost. But 50 bucks was well worth keeping my dumbasss move off my record.

 

I immediately called the office and let them know I got a ticket and was getting a diversion. They were like "cool, as long as it doesn't show up, you're golden". If it's not on there, then it basically didn't happen.

 

I got a speeding ticket in Pennsylvania but they don't specify my speed should I fight it???

 

Simple answer is yes.

 

If there was no conviction and no dot inspection involved with the speeding ticket then it didn't happen. I had a ticket dismissed earlier this year, ran my MVR last week, clean as a whistle back to '94.
