    ok this is my question, I got a speeding ticket for 59/45 in a construction zone. I did not get a roadside. Inspection. will this affect my company's CSA score?

    I think its 15 CSA a points and have talked to 2 drivers in the past month that were let go for such a offense. That was the only tickets they had on their CSA but the company's classified it as aggressive speeding .

    I'd have to look that up, but not now, but if it is 15 points BEFOE the triple points, then he actually has now 45..

    I think speeding is 5 points, before they triple up, but construction zone speeding, may be a whopper..??

    Definitely go to court and see if you can plead guilt to a reduced speed.
