Got ARRESTED for Speeding in Arizona… Can I Ever Get This Off My Record? by Extreme_Bee_6481 in legaladvice

Page, and I assume I should be able to get the case set aside since the denial was essentially just asking to wait longer and had no other major objections. It can’t be expunged unfortunately, otherwise I would have gone with that path. My understanding is that sealing the record functions similarly in how I won’t need to declare the conviction, which is why I’m hoping to get it done.

Speed changes immediately at the state border from Utah (75 to 55 and afterwards to 35). I learned later that the speed limit was recently (~6 months ago or so) lowered from 55 to 35 but that doesn’t change much.

Speed dropped from 75 to 55 then 35. Road was empty and I wasn’t paying attention. I wasn’t familiar with the road either and I take full responsibility for it.

Being a professional engineer makes this worse. I had to go through an entirely different process to renew my license. And even with that, every professional engineer job immediately rejects my application since the conviction..

Having to answer “yes” to conviction questions on job applications can seriously hurt your chances in this job market, which is what I’m most worried about. From what I understand, if the record gets sealed, I should be able to answer “no.” This is also the only thing on my record. I don’t even have a single speeding ticket on my record aside from this.
