Speeding tickets show a willingness to break the law regardless of whether the position is one that travels - so there's no support there for your original claim.

I didn't make the original claim. You mentioned speeding tickets and I shared my experience which showed that speeding tickets may also be taken into account.

The reason the company distinguishes between jobs that travel and those that don't is risk. Their business guy in their rental car is their liability. The same holds true for someone who would be driving a forklift. Heaven forbid, some guy driving a forklift run over another employee and then we find out the guy's had 3 car accidents in the last year.

Sorry - my bad. I've gotten too used to being in FR 'ping-pong matches.'

Right - they do that screening when it's directly relevant ... not because "it shows a willingness to break the law." Thanks for the dose of reality.
