It doesn't necessarily disqualify you, but what matters more is the time which has passed since your conviction. It can be a monkey on your back for up to ten years, but that's a bit uncommon. However, within three years of your DUI conviction, you're pretty much untouchable - not just to trucking companies, but for any job which entails operating a motor vehicle. The cost to insure you goes through the roof. But you really need five years between your conviction and the time you apply for a job. Those first five years are the most difficult, but you'll be taken a bit more seriously after that when you apply for a driving job.

Can you get a CDL in the state of Pennsylvania if you have two DUI's?

I am from Philadelphia and was a commercial truck driver for over 18 years. If you have 2 DUI's you CAN'T ever get a CDL! It is very hard to get a CDL if you have one DUI. With the economy still in a recession with high unemployment, it is not easy to get a job in trucking. There are more drivers than freight nationwide. If your MVR is not clean, you will be at a strong disadvantage. The trucking companies are cherry picking anybody they want now-they are in the driver's seat!

Yes, in Florida, a first-time DUI conviction can result in the court ordering the driver to attend DUI school.

After a DUI how long does a restricted drivers license apply in Virginia?

A DUI leads to an immediate 7-day driver's license suspension in Virginia.

I'll chose 1800 DUI Laws for the job.
