His/her question has been ignored. The question is can he/she get into trucking with this accident on his/her record?
Do I have a chance to still get into trucking after accident?

The short answer is yes, you can still get into driving. Your options might be limited though by the outcome of your situation.

If the Lawyer gets the ticket dismissed, good. The fact you were involved in an accident will remain on your DL record. As suggested, clean up your story. Apparently and Basically and my car hit hers, isn’t the best way to explain. If you beat the ticket for leaving the scene, depending on what gets negotiated, you may still be found at fault. If not, She merged into you, and spun you out. Non preventable. Could have been much worse. No one got hurt. End of story.

I had a lot of speeding tickets in my younger days, but this was over 10 years ago. We're talking 20ish tickets within a 3-4 year period. I've since changed to be a much more patient driver.
I haven't had a ticket in over 5 years, never been in an accident and never had a DUI. Would my past tickets hurt my odds of getting a job, or would this affect me at all?Chinatown Thanks this. -
5 years clean shows you're cleaned up your act.... you should be fine
SoulScream84, Chinatown, Kromdore and 1 other person Thank this. -
Read the applications carefully and don't list any that aren't asked about.
Companies will find out anyway, but for now they're only interested in the time frame that's asked about on the application.
The applications will ask about tickets within the last 2 yrs. or 3 yrs. or 5 yrs. etc.
Companies can find your entire driving history, but what is asked for on the application is what's important.
Be prepared for hair follicle drug test.
