    Getting an over weight ticket is not a big deal.. it happens and some drivers even collect them...

    Not telling your company..Swift.. is not a good idea.. you can and will be fired for it..

    Also, did you get an inspection report listing the violation code? Or any other violations?

    If your load is shifting and unsecured then whoever loaded it needs to come break the seal and rework the load and secure it...

    Unless.. it is your tandems which need sliding.. that you do on your own

    Report it to your company. It's not a big deal. Overweight tickets don't hurt your MVR or CSA, it's only a fine and keep it pushing.

    You're wanting to be a mentor, and "train" newbies, and 1) you don't do things the correct way, otherwise you wouldn't have gotten an overweight ticket
    And 2) you don't know if you should report it to your company?

    Sounds like being a mentor is more important to you than just being honest, and reporting it.
