Speeding ticket / misdemeanors for cdl jobs

Hey guys I’m new to the trucking world and I just signed up to get my cdl the guy I singed up with says that my 3 speeding tickets in the last 3 years (one was dropped to defective head lamp) will not hurt my chances of landing jobs ? I also have about 3 misdemeanors that are very low end misdemeanors ((marijuana paraphernalia,disturbing the peace (fighting in public ) and a harassment that was deferred and dismissed)) I’m curious if it’s stoll a good idea to spend 5k on getting my cdl id hate to spend this much money and time to get my cdl and then not be hirable anywhere ?? Please help ?? Thanks guys !!

 

Keep in mind the misdemeanors are from when I was 18-22 I am now 30 and an adult with a different set of values and a much more mature set of principles . I don’t drink or drug and haven’t for 10 years I was just young once like everyone else . But I appreciate your input I’ve seen allot of other people saying they have 15 mph + speeding tickets and mine are no where near that . Plus I’ve seen felons say they are being hired so I don’t know I’m far from a felon ?? Lol but thanks I appreciate your honesty and it sounds like I may need to rethink paying this 5k on Monday

 

Ok awesome yeah no legal issues in the past 3 years at all with the exception of the traffic violations thanks again for you input though I appreciate it !!

 

Ok sounds good I look forward to hearing from him he seems to be the guy on here !

 

Ok I’ll do that now thanks but for a quick fix I’m in Colorado Springs area
