My career over before it began? Accident and ticket?

Long story short... I'm a month away from graduation for a CDL A and B licence. Last week I ended up in my first minor accident ( a 'fender bender' as police labelled it ) with the accident entirely my fault. I was slow to see a yellow, failed to halt at the red and got into a minor T-bone. No injuries and no major damage to either vehicle. Now, with that on my record or soon to-be (court date is next month) and speeding ticket from year a half ago... I feel as if I messed up too much for a fruitful career as driver and been told so. Am I wrong?

Additional info: The state of both the ticket and accident was WI and in my own personal vehicle.

 

You know, I won’t lie and say I’ve thought driving sanitation rather it be that or garbage pick-up. So focused on work with freight hauling or OTR. Honesty, thanks for mentioning that.

 

I won't lie or make excuses of my screw up and but you're absolutely right. I'll protect my CDL with all I got. I never plan to get DUI, not one to drink or substance use to begin with.

 

Thanks for sharing! I just hear often from driver in WI, that with it's 5-year point system that it's either have clean record or forever be passed over. All that talk has basically sparked all my worries.
