Professional truck drivers face severe consequences when they receive traffic tickets because these violations threaten their CDL status and their ability to work and maintain their professional standing. The good news for truck drivers is that they can fight traffic tickets because this approach protects their driving record and professional future. SpeedTicketDefense provides nationwide defense services to commercial drivers who face traffic violations.
Why Traffic Tickets Are a Big Deal for Truck Drivers
Commercial drivers must follow stricter rules than other drivers because FMCSA regulations apply to them. The consequences of traffic violations for commercial drivers become severe. A traffic ticket issued to CDL holders will result in four major consequences.
- CDL suspension or disqualification
- Increased insurance premiums
- Employer penalties or job loss
- CSA score damage
Truck drivers need to fight their traffic tickets because paying the fine and accepting responsibility will not solve their problems.
Common Traffic Tickets Truck Drivers Face
Professional truck drivers receive various traffic citations while operating their vehicles on public roads.
- Speeding or reckless driving
- Overweight or load violations
- Following too closely
- Logbook and Hours-of-Service (HOS) violations
- Lane change and signaling infractions
- Vehicle inspection or maintenance issues
Your driving record will receive points from these violations while the DOT will perform additional audits which might result in temporary disqualification.
