Im going to plead not guilty but if i am found guilty would it be a bad idea to start this business?

Um, why would you make any money??  If I am a business, or an individual, why would I want to choose you??  As opposed to someone that is known & established, such as UPS, or FEDX, or some other company??  These companies (quite likely), have a lock on the courier business.

How much you can make depends on how much business you can attract.  You could lose money and go bankrupt or you could be the next UPS or FedEx,  And yes, if you get a conviction, it would be a bad idea - you will need to be bonded to get anyone to trust you enough to hire you and many bonding companies will not insure someone with a conviction.

if found guilty - if might be impossible for you to get bonded as might be required being a courier - also, you would have to pay commercial auto insurance (more expensive) using your vehicle full time for business

there are already many companies that offer what you are thinking of, so unless you could provide something that they don't, then it wouldn't be worth looking into
