Yes, there are a few trucking companies who are willing to give second chances, and whose insurance will allow them to hire you as long as the DUI/DWI conviction is at LEAST 3 years old from the date of CONVICTION, not arrest.

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!

How do you find a good truck driving school in Ontario CANADA?
Almost all trucking companies are insured by insurers that require truck drivers to have at least two years' truck driving experience. Most truck driver training schools will lie to you and tell you that the training they provide will exempt you from this requirement. You heard right - most will lie to you.If you are serious about becoming a trucker, call several trucking companies first and ask about insurance coverage for new drivers. Almost all of them will tell you you need two years experience.The only place in Ontario where you might get truthful and accurate information about exemptions from the two years experience rule is the Canadian Trucking Human Resources Council in Ottawa. (See link below.) There are one or two schools in Ontario that will allow you to be exempted.Calling Schneiders in Guelph is a good idea, because they train their new drivers. There is another trucking in Mississauga that does the same. There is a significant cost involved for such training.If you want to run the risk of getting your licence and not being able to find a job because you do not have two years experience, Humber College in Toronto is probably your best bet, but it is quite expensive. As far as private schools go, I've heard that Richards in Mississauga is probably the best. But what good is a licence if you can't get a job?
