Can't Get Hired...
Topic 6421 | Page 2
Furthermore I had an accident (besides one in 08) or moving violation before. But because I recently was involved in two accidents rerecently I'm given a no. Thats plain dumb. Had they happen a year ago I would be fine and was "encouraged" to reapply in 9 months.
Its the company saying no, its the insurance. They can't put a person who has had two accidents within a short time get behind the wheel of an 80k lb rig. thats got lawsuit written all over it.
Don't give up, keep working on safe driving, get the 9 months they ask and then go for it again.

That make a lot of sense, I see what you mean. Thank You!
The second incident doesn't come up on the mvr. At least I didnt see it on there. But i know it would be suicide not to mention it.
MVR:
Motor Vehicle Record
An MVR is a report of your driving history, as reported from your state Department of Motor Vehicles. Information on this report may include Drivers License information, point history, violations, convictions, and license status on your driving record.

If you have a copy of your MVR and it doesn't show, then you may be in good luck, I don't wanna say don't report it, but if something isn't there then why say something?
Back in June i applied for Prime, went to orientation in Salt Lake and got 3 days in I was sent home. I was sent home because I didnt report the 3 accidents I had gotten at my last employer.. Now none of them had been on my MVR, my company sent my entire HR file and it showed up in there. Had my company not sent my file, I'd be at prime driving now.

Wait so put it on or don't. Lol But I'll probably still put it on. I don't need my past biting be in the butt.

Right! its a catch 22. Putting it on could be whats causing issues, but not putting it on could be bad too.
Call a recruiter and just see what they say if you only have the one on your MVR.
