Most trucking companies hiring of drivers is mandated by their insurance company's policies. Having that many points on a professional driver's license means that your chances will be far less than a driver with less points on his license. Keep trying companies. It all depends on what the violations were for also. That does make a difference with some insurance companies but not always.

Try looking at trucking companies in different states also. Try the northeast states or companies out of Texas.

Having the hazmat endorsement should help you as well. Have you ever thought of hauling propane? In the winter most trucking companies that haul propane can't hire enough drivers to haul for them. But since this is the spring/summer/fall you might want to look into companies that haul asphalt products as well.
