Travis,
Calcapt certainly has some good advice to heed (as well as others that have been around the boards for several hundred posts...) Before you go jumping off the deep end, why not take a second to reflect upon your own attitude.
Calcapt (and the others) that have given insight on this thread are right when they say that more than your driving record raises flags. Employers do a lot more than just look at your driving record when they interview. 80% of the interview is personality, character and attitude. 15% is knowledge and ability. The last 5% is everything else (including background and history).
I suggest your start by selfevaluating how much of a change you need to make. It's apparent to me that you're not fully ready for the challenges and responsibility that comes with a job flying.

With the exception of public exposure..........in all honesty, my driving record was A LOT worse. Question: any DUI's? Is your name on the NDR(national driver registry)(i.e. has your license been suspended or revoked?) If you answered no to both questions.....you should be fine....i was

Attitude Adjustment
All these other guys have good advice. I have been flying for CAL many years. In fact, I have flown with a couple guys (who are friends of mine) who have recieved reckless driving tickets. You are in need of an attitude adjustment young man.

hey i got a speeding ticket but then guess what, I stopped speeding and learned my lesson! (it works pretty well u should try it!) Travis you need to GROW UP and start obeying the law. Seems like you just make 1 mistake after the other and it doesnt look like you learned anything from those mistakes. Not exactly the best attitude for a professional in any field let alone aviation.

Definitly don't need to be looked down upon by you. This may get me banned, but you are a [deleted by Admin].
As far as the red light, I looked to the side for a second at my friend that was giving me directions (was out of town). I looked up, the light was yellow. It was either slam on the brakes and cause a scene, or enter the intersection when it was yellow and leave as it was red.
