Commercial Trucking

Overweight loads, driving too fast or unsafely, can jeopardise your Class 1 licence and your career in Commercial Trucking. Commercial drivers do not have the same safety net that non-commercial drivers do. If a non-commercial driver loses their licence, they’re eligible to reapply for a restrictive licence to get to and from work. However, when a commercial driver loses their licence, they will not be afforded this eligibility. Many trucking tickets are issued on behalf of the name of the company, not the driver. You should be prepared to have an attorney or agent appear on behalf of the corporation to represent the corporation in criminal or traffic court.
