I know someone who went to cr england trucking school in they had a felony but didn't disclose it on the application and yet they finish school and now working from them (roughly 2 months). So my question is if you don't say nothing they won't check your background? I'm thinking about going to cr england to get my cdl but i have a felony from 2006 n that's it, never went to jail only probation. Working on getting it expunged. Clean driving record...His was from 2005 n he got one from 1999 or 2000 I think
Did they do a background check or don't care?

Does'nt matter if you put the felony on your app or not,crengland will look it up.Every company does.That other person with a felony was minor otherwise england would'nt have hired him.

Oh so burglary and robbery charges are minor to them, didn't know that...I should be good then
-
lmao you're so silly,lol.This guy has that on his record?Guess someone at england was asleep at the computer and did'nt see that.Once they do don't be surprised when he tells you he got fired.

If felons could not drive trucks trucking would be a high paying job because not many people would be qualified. As we speak any given truck stop has more ex cons in rigs on it than the local jail. It's easy to get a job as a felon in trucking, just look at their policies. You can get a TWIC and HAZMAT, just look at their policies as well. It's a myth that you are done for with a record, yeah you're not going to be a cop but you can truck all night long. Also companies do "cheap" background checks. They aren't doing FBI level searches by any means. They just search counties you lived in. So if you lived in XYZ county and had a record there they will search that and find it. If you lived in XYZ county with a girl and don't list it, they won't search that county and won't find your record.

I would say they either haven't gotten the criminal history back yet or your friend had his record expunged or they just might not care about criminal history. They do check and when they find out he lied, he's probably going to get fired. Either way it goes, it is best to put it on there.
