What is the difference between an accident and an incident?

by Deb
(MA)

Have 3 tickets prior to CDL in personal vehicle. Drove OTR 4months 36,000 miles. Rubbed trailer tire against a cement footing bent rim and blew tire.

No injury or property damage on private property. In a TA hit two tractors with mid marker light. Again private property. Only damage to my trailer was marker lite and trailer tire blew out.

Hoods on tractors nailed took out one bumper on older tractor and a radiator. And then was fired.

Unclear as to how to proceed with applications. I want to drive is my career over? Can't find a company that will give me another chance.

Any suggestions? Appreciate any help.

Thank You.

Take Time Off NEW

Take Time Off, Go to a School and take a "refresher course" If trucking companies see that you went the extra mile to correct your errors they may be more apt to give you a chance. Good luck!
