Am I going to have difficulty finding a job?

Yes in some cases but it doesn't mean much if they do a good background check because it doesn't disappear from all the records.

my point of view is that they shouldn't allow it but that's me.

 

Getting pinched for no insurance is also an experience but that one is on you.
How is it you didn't know?...sounds like something a teenager would say.
You'll have to be a lot better at keeping track of things that important if you want to make it in this business ,details mater, even small ones but something that important overlooked is a red flag for sure.

 

You drove with a guy who had been in prison? It seems that you want someone to give you a new start and yet you are not willing to do the same.

Getting your license suspended for failure to have insurance is a bad thing. We all have uninsured motorist insurance in the state I am from. Missouri (Ma ZUR Ah). If someone hits us and does not have insurance, then our medical bills are paid for. Not our car, but our medical. I learned that when my daughter was hit by a driver without insurance.

The deciding factor will be how are your insurance rates after you have had your license suspended. In Missouri, once you have had your license suspended you have to file a proof of insurance form with the state. It is called an SR22 form. Those having to file this form pay a greatly inflated insurance rate. Companies don't like to pay high rates and therefore they do not hire people who drive the rates up.

Personally, you come off as one of the ME generation and I would not team with you. There are enough jobs out there that you will find something. Good luck.

 

I recently moved to a new location so I never received a letter letting me know my insurance was about to expire.

Did you let the insurance company know that you moved ( when you changed registration address on your car ) as well as setup for mail being forwarded to your new location at the Post Office

 

Things happen, lesson learned hopefully but you are right it's your fault regardless, you should not have to rely on them sending you a letter you should know when your insurance expires.
Just like paying the rent or making your credit card payment or any other bill it's your responsibility to keep track of due dates and make payment.

Like I said details mater, when you are trucking and get in a pickle because you are caught driving on a restricted route or find yourself stuck at a low bridge with traffic backed up behind you and no way to turn around or worse yet hit a low bridge you can't just say " dispatch didn't tell me I couldn't go this way"...it's on you to know the legal route regardless of the directions you were given if any.
There's lots more scenarios like that where it's on you in this job if you don't keep track of things and pay attention.

 

As stated, you will have to file SR-22 with the state you are in. This automatically puts you in the High Risk category. Normally your insurance under the SR-22 will have you pay your premiums in advance.


If you've been convicted of a DUI or failure to carry insurance—or convicted of certain other traffic violations—your state may require you to have an SR-22 (in some states it's an FR-44). These certificates of financial responsibility, in which an insurance company certifies a driver's ability to pay claims up to a particular state's required limit, are often associated with:

• DUIs and serious and/or repeat traffic offenses
• An at-fault accident with no insurance
• License suspension or revocation
• Drivers unable to show financial liability

Essentially, an SR-22 is a form submitted by your insurance carrier to prove to the state that you are maintaining auto insurance liability coverage.
SR-22 terms and requirements vary by state, but often you'll find:

• You'll need to have an SR-22 showing continuous insurance coverage for about three years.
• If your policy lapses or expires during this period, your insurance company is required to notify the state.
• Failure to comply with the terms of your SR-22 may result in suspension of your license.
• Once you properly fulfill the time requirements, your SR-22 status is lifted.

 

Did you get your certificate from CR England or did you have a school cert prior to going to CRE? You will definitely need one or the other. You will want to start applying as soon as you have your license back... Time is not your friend on this one. It's not over, but hopefully this is the only baggage you have.
