You can always try applying to company-sponsored training that covers most of the country. Swift, CR England, Stevens, CRST, or Werner, one of those might just take you.
That way you know you will have a job and they will know upfront about the violation so you won't have to go through paid training and then find yourself unhireable.

more than 15 over with a CDL; the second offense gets a year suspension of the CDL privileges and a lot of insurance companies don't like it even if it is a little old....
NavigatorWife and Rideandrepair Thank this. -
Unless it’s changed, it’s 3 mos. for second offense. Even then disqualified for Commercial Driving only.NavigatorWife Thanks this.
-
My mistake, I looked it up, 60 days, and another 60 days for second offense.NavigatorWife Thanks this.
-
Thanks for all the input guys!
I’m currently in contact with a lawyer who may be able to have the charge removed from my record. I don’t have my cdl yet so I’m pretty sure it’s legal. I read online it’s illegal to have certain charges changed/removed once you have your cdl by doing remedial courses or other things like that? Is this true? Or did I just not understand itNavigatorWife and Rideandrepair Thank this. -
It is true. And options like traffic school go away once you get your CDL.NavigatorWife Thanks this.
-
So what do people on here mean when they say lawyers keep their mvr clean when they get tickets once they have their cdl?
-
Lawyers get charges reduced, dropped or changed to non moving violations.
NavigatorWife Thanks this. -
So they basically are able to bend the rules in your favor?
-
They use the law to help get you out of trouble. If such a law does exist. No bending needed. Unlike truck driving though, it took them years of college to get their license so you’ll have to pay them a handsome fee for their time.NavigatorWife Thanks this.
