Hello. I am starting CDL school soon and had a question about my driving record. The people at the school seem to think I'm probably fine.
Last known incidents:
1. Possible red light camera ticket a few weeks ago. I am basically being paranoid with this one since I have no idea. I just went through the light and since I've gone through lights thousands of times my brain immediately forgot about it. But i noticed the intersection was a red light camera one and when I looked in my rearview mirror I noticed all the cars behind me begin to stop. Thought to myself "oh crap". I called the local people but but they only get the video like three weeks later so it's up in the air. Like I said. Probably being paranoid here but who knows.
2. Speeding ticket for 15 over in 2014. In Louisiana
3. Speeding ticket in 2014, probably 10-15 over. Unknown location. Was traveling cross country, somewhere in the midwest.
That's it for the last ten years I'm pretty sure. I've been in a few fender benders but no citations or anything other than these.
The instructors were saying that isnt really too bad but I'm sure they would say that because... why not say that.
Also. I have a slight color vision deficiency and can only pass those damn number dot tests half the time. I usually get one more wrong than is allowed. But I can clearly and easily differentiate between red, green, amber etc. That's fine right?
Anyways. Not much to ask yet other than me being a little paranoid about driving record stuff. Hope that isn't too bad. I recently got laid off from oil and gas so I'm looking at trucking as my next viable adventure since oil doesn't appear to be coming back anytime soon.
