If you've met the requirements for reinstatement of your licence, then, yes, you can upgrade to a CDL. However, if your DUI conviction was within the last three years, you might not want to commit to spending between $3000 - $5000 for a truck driving school just yet.

If you have a DUI can you still get your cdl license?

A past DUI conviction won't prevent you from being able to get your CDL, but, depending on how recent it was, it could prevent you from finding employment as a CDL driver. If your DUI conviction was within the past five years, you're better off finding a different line of work to get into.

Can you get a cdl in Florida with a DUI?

Not as long as the resulting suspension period from your DUI conviction is in effect. If it has passed, and you've reinstated your licence, you can upgrade it to a CDL. If your DUI occurred within the past 10 years, your prospects of finding employment as a CDL driver are slim. If it's been within the past five years, you'd be best advised to pursue another career path, and not waste your money getting a CDL.
