Driving History Question Sort of Tricky?

What charges were you ACTUALLY CONVICTED FOR?

I was only convicted of Inattentive Driving, Failure to Obey Traffic Control Device and Leaving the scene of Accident. Yes I was finger printed but my Licence was never suspended Oddly enough. Even got my picture taken in the local paper "Jail Birds"

I was planing with sponcer Driver Solutions then on to PAM Transport if all goes well. Might just wait till Feb still IDK?

Seem they just ask if convicted of DUI/DWI speeding tickets in past 5 years well then short answer is.....NO, I just don't really want to waste my time and money getting DOT physical and permit for them to run that background and send me packing. Or just find a sponsored CDL course that will accept me, I'm sure there are a few out there. just seem like PAM has there sign on bonus and newer Trucks with APU's and gizmos. And I have family near there headquarters in Arkansas pay them a visit after orientation .

Driving History Question Sort of Tricky?

First I wanted to say hello to everyone on this forum.

Hello My Name is Matthew L. I just had a couple of question before I head to CDL Training School when they search for driving records. I know most places want to know a driving history of 5 years or more with No DWI/DUI or certant moving violations.

In Oklahoma Feb 2012 I was arrested for DUI Refusal, Inattentive Driving, Failure to Obey Traffic Control Device and Leaving the scene of Accident, But I was never charged with DUI or DWI. (Yeah really bad decision and really rough time in that part of my life) Nobody was hurt happen in a parking lot. Lady is a husband of a Police Officer. And I been Living in Kentucky sense September 2013 with a flawless record. I was told after 3 years in Oklahoma they would need court order to get that information "Even if that is true". I gave my recruiter my previous drivers licence number and current one in KY and He could not find any info about that.

So my biggest concern is getting all my paper work in order CDL Permit, DOT Physical just to show up to school then when they run my final background check they find those records and send me packing back home. Is there a particular data base I can search for myself? The company PAM Transport and i was told they use www.hireright.com for background checks.

Even though I don't Have a DUI will these other violations prevent me from furthering my career in truck driving thanks again Matt
