How long does it take for a careless driving charge to come of license

My boyfriend is seeking a driving job. However, November 2008 he hit a city bus mirror and was charged with careless driving and four points on the license.

When does a charge like this fall off your record? He is desperately seeking a job trucking. Does it fall off after three years. He presently is holding a valid CDL in Florida.

The insurance companies will look at this ticket for 3 years. As long as he has had a clear mvr since then they will not hold it againts him. I am an insurance agent and I have seen when a Driver keeps getting tickets over and over again they will look back more than three years!!!

Well it will always be on there. Even after the pionts go away. But he can hire a lawyer and ask for a motion for approiate release and maybe get it reduced to a less violation. If is record has been clean since 2008.
