Is it right to not get hired because of tickets!?
This isnt a driving job and i cant get hired because i have one red light ticket and one speeding ticket. The speeding one is 3 years ago and the red light was last year (one of those cameras!) and i cant get hired...i dont htink it has anything to do with job performance.

What makes you think your driving record has anything to do with it? |

All other things being equal with the prospective "new hire," moving violations show an employee may have a lack of attention to detail. This may make the employer select the person with a clean driving record. Maybe your state has an avenue to remove these violations, check with your local DMV & good luck! |

You don't say how you are 100% sure that the reason you are not getting hired is due to tickets. Are possible employers disclosing this information to you, or are you assuming this is the reason? |

Some employers may take it into account, because they feel that you're not responsible when it comes to driving. They may think that this would be the case in a work situation as well. Maybe if you can provide evidence that these are incidents that occurred in the past and won't happen again, the employers will overlook the tickets. Possibly show that you paid the tickets promptly, went to traffic school, etc. |

It wouldn't be illegal to not hire you because of the tickets. |
