So based upon that example:

I would likely not get hired by Swift for at least another 6 months until more time has elapsed after my personal auto accident of 6 months ago. I should probably put off CDL training for a few months then..

Thanks for the reply

Minor infractions will not hurt you. They will if you have a lot of them in a short period of time. Just be honest and up front with the companies you apply with. You will be fine as long as no alcohol / drugs were involved.

I didn't even want to bother enrolling in a trucking school if this personal accident would keep me from getting hired once I have completed training.

Thanks

Greetings Folks: I had a minor car accident about 6 months ago in Michigan. Both drivers were issued citation. I went to court and mine had been reduced to +5 over speed infraction. I had my car repaired by my insurance carrier "State Farm." I have been contemplating pursuing a career in trucking and wonder if this accident (the first I had in +25 years), would eliminate this as a career possibility? Would there be a reference to the accident on the DMV report? I know that since the ticket had been reduced to a +5 over speed infraction, I have zero points on my record. Stressing out about this as I sincerely would like to pursue trucking as a career.

Thank for any replys, in advance.

Mark
