    Ok, I was fired from my 1st and apparently last job as a trucker for 3 accidents but the thing is the company said that they would hire me back with 6 months of safe driving. So technically they fired me for safety issues/insurance but what I need to know is what company is willing to take a chance on me??
    PAM XX
    USA XX
    MAVERICK XX
    STEVENZ XX
    STEVENS XX
    AND ANY OTHER HAS BASICALLY X ME OUT TO. I just need to know if I need to wait my years and get a garbage truck job or whatever because I have them and #### well plan to use them on something.

    Better take what you can get, go to work, and keep looking. Having a current job with 3 wrecks in the past is better than not having a job with 3 wrecks in the past. Take what you can get now, work on getting better driving habits, and apply again. Good luck.

    I agree with JBATMICK.

    Were they three (3) incidents or three (3) accidents?

    If they were accidents, were reportable or non-reportable?

    If they were non-reportable, were they on public or private property?

    All these questions make a difference.

    If they were incidents than you can have them removed from your DAC.

    If they were non-reportable and on private property you can also have them removed from your DAC.

    If they were non-reportable on public property than there is no thing you can do, look for another job.

    If they are reportable accidents then do my family a favor and find a new profession please, because I don't want you running them over. I know that might seem harsh but I'm sorry its the truth.

    The home page on this forum has a link and a lot of good information about DAC (Hire Right) reports that every driver with CDL should know.

    apply for a job and get turned down because of Dac then you get free copy and a chance to tell your side of story

    To keep this thread in context, the OP was fired, step 1 you might say.

    Another poster asked for clarification whether the OP had incidents or accidents.

    To your point, I asked for a link, which another post somewhat provided.

    3 accidents within your first year? You might want to reconsider your career choice. Not everyone is cut out to be a trucker, and it looks like you're one of those people.
