Careless driving-went to traffic school. Am I hire-able?

Hey everyone,

Today I was in a bit of fender bender. It was due to mechanical malfunction in my personal vehicle. Anyway, this happened in Florida. The officer gave me a careless driving ticket. I've read on Florida's DMV site that if I go to driving school, the points will not be put my on my license & I'll get to keep my safe driver status.

I've never had a CDL or applied for a permit. I am suppose to be starting school next month. What I would like to know from any of you who might know, is after I complete CDL school, will I be hire-able? Will the companies be able to see this on my record? I don't have any speeding tickets or any other violation on my record.

I'm talking to my lawyer about possibly contesting it since it's a pretty ridiculous ticket. It was in a small town & it was a small town cop who gave the ticket. Both the other vehicle & I were at a complete stop/red light. I was at a safe distance from them. Then my car stalled, cut off, and after restarting it, the car jumped forward & rear-ended the other vehicle. There wasn't even a lot of damage. Just a few scratches & small dents. We both drove away fine. Thank, y'all!


If I didn't have bad luck, I wouldn't have any luck at all.

 

It's actually not a single incident. The vehicle shuts off every time it's cranked now unless it's given a little gas.

 

Thanks y'all for the advice. I appreciate it! I'll do as recommended.

 

There's no significant damage to either vehicle either. So, the malfunction could not have been caused the collision it self. Even if this is proven though, I'm not sure it would matter to one of these small town judges.
