What does a clean driving record mean for my job?
I’m applying for a job right now and one of their preferred requirements is a clean driving record. What does this mean? Will I be disqualified from the position if I have a speeding ticket on file?

It’s unlikely that you’ll be disqualified for a speeding ticket, but you might be a less desirable candidate for the job. A clean driving record means one that is free of accidents, moving violations, or
driving points
, like the ones that you would get from a speeding ticket.If you just have a ticket or two on your record, however, you won’t have many points on your record. In some states, you can also remove points and violations from your record if you take a defensive driving course. To learn if this is an option for you, check out the DMV website.
Driving violations of any kind also increase your insurance rates. Luckily, the
