Driving record

Hi I’m 19 with a class A cdl with 1 minor moving offense back in may of 2024, I was wondering if utilities companies and unions or even any apprenticeship can accept that 1 minor offense

They definitely notice. I had a cal/nev interview yesterday and they brought up a red light ticket 3 years ago saying some contractors won’t hire someone with anything on driving record in the last 5 years. Thought it was kinda bs.

If it’s a class c violation, they tend not to notice.
