    how many accidents are we talking about? What companies are you considering. Describe in detail your accident.



    If you put an equal amount of effort into your job search as you did this post, no you will not get hired.

    your mom might hire you if she has a company,other than that...only companies that dont check your record.

    if you posted more details like someone else suggested it could help if they were minor or non-preventable,but generally 1,let alone multiple accidents+fired and companies wont even consider you.

    i had a minor accident while w/ jb hunt, they considered it preventable,i wasnt cited,the other driver was cited and there was a witness to him backing up on the highway entrance ramp etc...3 weeks later i get to chicago terminal and they road test me,doing fine and i go thru a yellow light which turns red while im in the middle of the intersection (light changed fast.) and i was canned for this.

    i had to apply to alot of companies to find one that would hire me,even mentioning an accident,let alone being fired, and they are trying to say bye and hang up. the only thing that got me the driving job that i did get was the accident report,they were able to hire me after looking at the details which most companies werent willing to do.
