Don't just find yourself in a bad situation. Fight like a wildcat to overcome the obstacles you threw in front of yourself and someday you can blame the industry you are working for terrible companies.
OR
Keep your record clean, stay out of trouble, do massive research, work for great companies that pay well and treat you well. Which path sounds like more work?Cattleman84 and FlaSwampRat Thank this. -
Sometimes you need to hit rock bottom before you can make a change. Just because you did "this or that" before doesn't mean a person is incapable of change.
Experience/wisdom always has it's price.bryan21384, Cattleman84, FlaSwampRat and 2 others Thank this. -

I'd like to give the OP the benefit of the doubt because they at least ask? There is some effort given. Before they have been turned down a fist-full of times. Someone thinking ahead rather than asking as a direct result.

How old are these tickets now.
Back in 84 I bought a new honda magna, it really liked to cruise at 95 or6 mph, so that is what my tickets usually were with it, and I racked up 10 of them in 11 months.
A friend got 4 tickets and they suspended his license. He didn't have a commercial, just regular operators license. it scared me, so I called in and ask if I was in danger, they checked and told me no, that I had a commercial license, and it was expected for us to get more tickets, si I was covered. lol I had never had a speeding ticket in a truck. Now that all came to a drastic change with the implementation of the cdl, so that now it is the other way around.FlaSwampRat Thanks this. -
It will be a while.
Just accept that those numbers on the three tickets are simply just too high of a wall to climb over to find a good trucking job. You might end up with a company that is ... less than a good place to stay or wait until the tickets roll off your MVR in a certain amount of time.
You are not a idiot. But let's assume that you will not be getting any more of those tickets. Its over and done with. I know what it is like to have a stack of tickets on the top end in my time. Ive already paid economically for those in my life time.
As many years I am, the speeds do not hold the fun as it once did long ago in those days.
Chinatown will probably find you something. Because somewhere someone needs a truck driver. Regardless of the smothering heap of ashes your driving record has become.tscottme, FlaSwampRat and skellr Thank this. -
