Check point and OOS for flat tire?

I was pulled in and passed everything beside the officer found a flat tire and he was nice about saying it happens,
Now he said just pull over get it fixed then you good to go.
My co-driver said that’s a violation and out of service and that will go onto my driving record PSP although I was giving no citation just the printed paper..

What to expect now and does it really gonna screw my record, I’m still new and I need all the help..

 

Your co-driver, the know it all. Was there a warning?

 

Did you get an Inspection Report that notes the flat tire? If there is any defect noted on the Inspection Report, you will get at least 1 PSP point. Some officers call it a "warning ticket" because there is no fine. If the violation is reported in an Inspection Report, it is NOT a no-harm "warning ticket". It's a PSP violation. When you get PSP points, they are counted at 3 times the violation points for the first 12 months. They they are counted at 2 times the violation points for the next 12 months. Then they are counted a 1 times the violation points for the next 12 months. If you never have any more PSP violations. 3 days from the date of this violation your record will be clean again. If you got points, it's not a big deal, it's not nothing, but not terrible. The lesson I learned the hard way is NEVER CROSS A SCALE WITH ANY VIOLATIONS.

 

It's more like a parking ticket on your record than an accident. It's not good, but you don't want anymore of them on your record.

 

Flat tire ? How can you miss a flat tire. When was the last stop you made ? Did you check all tires ? I have a habit of thumping all the tires anytime I’m stopped for anything. I check for leaks and tires regardless. I know….. it’s a bad habit.

 

You can check a tire, it's OK, and an hour later, the screw you picked up has evacuated all the air, leaving said tire kaput!

 

Not that I’m aware of
But I got the tire fixed and he let me go,
The inspection paper said OOS tho but that’s about it, no citations..
Am really worried, this is really messed up I did the PTI no idea how that flat tire happened..

 

A screw most likely will give it a slow leak. If you blow the sidewall, you will feel it.

 

Yup, with that OOS, your getting your points along with the company.

 

Yes the printed report mentioned the flat tire.
