Getting a cdl with a few speeding tickets on record in illinois?
I have about 2 speeding tickets that i know of on my record but a total of about 7 violations.
One of my speeding tickets was a 6mph over the limit of 55 and the other ticket was on new years eve for 85 in a 60 i believe the latest ticket was just 5 months ago.
well I turned 22 this past january and I want to try OTR driving etc.
My problem is do you think anyone would hire me even if i had the cdl or are my speeding tickets toooo bad?
My other violations are minor like no front license plate, no seat belt, and i believe 2 years ago 1 ticket for no insurance(my ins. expired the day before i was stopped).
one company i tired to apply for so they could sponsor my school denied me because of the tickets
I'm wondering is there any other way though?
Btw I don't have any felonies and never been arrested etc.

the main problem we have here with cdl’s is if you have a dui/dwi infraction in north carolina. you must be insurable, and wear a seat belt. consider getting your cdl down here to drive a transporter for a race team, they need a few.

It will be very hard for you to get hired right now. You may have to wait till some of those tickets come off your record. I don’t know how it works in Ill., but in Ohio it takes two years to come off. Then again there are a lot of trucking companies that might hire you any way. search trucking companies one of them just might you wont know unless you try.
