Yes, but you'll want to be sure there's at least seven years between your DUI conviction and applying for a CDL driving job.

It's possible to get a CDL. Where you'll run into problems is finding employment with a driving record like that.


Can you get a cdl after a dwi in Texas?

Getting the CDL isn't the issue - it's finding employment. If that DWI was within five years, you can pretty much forget about it. Even within the next two years afterwards, a DWI on your record will make it a lot more difficult for you.

Can you get a CDL after one DWI?

Yes, you can get your CDL after a DWI. A lot of bigger trucking companies will not hire you for 3 yrs or more because there insurance carrier wont insure DWI drivers because of the risk. I recently got a DWI in my personal vehicle, I have my CDL. My license is suspended for 6 months-I get conditional license (class d,a normal license), my cdl license is revoked for 1 yr which I will then be able to apply to the DMV to get my CDL back. Good Luck. Go to CRST Van Expedited if you want a company to pay for you to get your CDL. You stay with them for 8 months and you dont have to pay for your cdl schooling. Your DWI must have happened at least 3 yrs ago to work at that company. If its a recent DWI try applying at smaller local companies in you area-they might be more likely to hire you. I'm out of New York..all state laws vary-so you might luck out better in your state. Dont get a DWI with a CDL, dwi convictoins with a cdl are a lot more strict (even in your own car-i lost my job over my dwi) and BAC (blood alcohol level .08) is much lower(.04 in truck). Good luck to you.


If you have a commercial drivers license with a 2nd DWI pending but on the first DWI your CDL was not suspended what will be the penalty for 2nd DWI?

If you can't figure out not to do that, you don't need to be out in here in a big truck. Your CDL will most likely be suspended this time around.. and for good reason.
