    my friend and I are looking at becoming CDL drivers and driving as a team. She has an excessive speeding ticket (20 mph over limit) on her record from 3 months ago. Does this disqualify her from obtaining her CDL?

    That alone won't disqualify you from getting a cdl but at 3 months old not many companies will hire you.

    No, and while it will be tougher finding a job you two will still stand a better chance in 3 yrs of getting a great job, than if you did nothing.

    Funny thing is I'm friends with quite a few cops and I ride with them. Not a helmet in the group and I'm the only one that doesn't hit trips, I got a slow Harley. They're a different breed when the uniform comes off.

    Twice the legal limit on an R1 in a 65

    Ooopps.

    Even the cop said 'why'd you stop?'

    I have a Harley now... the R1 spends most of its time on a stand.

    Have you ever thought about becoming a chef? Couple years of training and they make decent money, indoors too.
