    I’m finishing up CDL school. I have 3 speeding tickets on my record. All 15 over. The first in march 2017, the second in July 2018 and the most recent in June of 2020. Will I be able to be hired by anyone, or did I just waste $4000? Thanks in advance.

    I’ve been goin slow since the last one. I learned my lesson. I never speed anymore. I was just young and stupid.

    Somebody will probably hire you but it won't be a first class company. You'll be stuck with the lower echelon of trucking until you clean up your license.

    I doubt Swift would hire you with those tickets.

    By lower echelon, you should read companies that really don't care about safety or being legal.

    But please... try Swift. I would really like to see the outcome.
