Can you keep your cdl s if you are on methadone in treatment?

It is perfectly legal to drive on methadone, as it is on any other prescription drug, as long as you are not intoxicated.This means that for someone on a stable dose of methadone, who can pass a sobriety test, it is legal to drive. If the dose is too high or the individual's tolerance too low, or if the individual is prescribed other drugs which enhance the intoxicating effects of the methadone, the person will not be able to pass a sobriety test and will be considered intoxicated.
