I live in GA, I had an accident on my truck back in July in Ohio. It did get towed, no other vehicle involved but a fence was damaged. I know the accident is considered a DOT reportable. I got a citation back then for failure to maintain control that was 3 points. However the lawyer I got was able to reduce it to an equipment violation and no points. I am checking my MVR and notice that there was no accident involved with this violation. I don't want to call the state and ask questions because if it is something that is beneficial to me I don't want to mess it up.
My question is,
-Why does it show that there was no accident?
-When applying to jobs how should i present this?

Thank you for your information!

Legally you have to present it. But present it with an explanation. If you conceal it and you have an accident in the future/ there is an audit YOU will be in a LOT of trouble.
