I am at 11 months of driving and was starting to look at moving from the starter companies to something better and have had an clean record. No tickets, no accidents and well over 100,000 miles driven until I went into a weight station with a flat trailer tire. Yes I did the pretrip inspection and drove 5 miles from the truckstop until I was pulled into the weight station. I must have hit something and cut the sidewall. The tire did not blow up. Other than the cut in sidewall the tire was fine, the tread was not separating or anything. The dot officer gave me a level 2 inspection and noted the flat had to have just happened because in the snow and salt there was no debris in the cut and the tire was not scuffed by being curbed. The only issue on the level 2 was the flat tire everything else passed and I was not given ticket.
My question is have a destroyed my chances of moving on to a better company until the points are reduced?
Did I throw away a year or more?
