    Hello and Welcome to the Site:)

    What are the violations listed? The school may not accept you either. You really should make sure that your MVR will get you a job before you continue with the school. JMHO:)

    Best !!!!!

    What kind of moving violations and how many? Keep your license squeaky clean if you want to be a driver. Best advice you'll ever get...... :mwink::tongueSTARS555::kermit::laughing-guffaw::blob:

    I don't think that's going to be an acceptable excuse. ;) If you have more than a few I would rethink your career path. It has been said before but you will be competing for jobs with people that have 100% clean driving records. If you have just the odd speeding ticket you probably will be OK but if you have anything like reckless driving or excessive speeding or something (especially with accidents) then you have a big problem.

    The company will pull your MVR before hiring you. If you don't have any outstanding tickets or pending suspensions,the company's insurance carrier will probably allow them to hire you assuming adequate training or experience
