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.
You would need to get a medical waiver in order to do this.
Yes. Getting a CDL won't be a problem - it's finding employment with a felony record which will be.
If you have a fine that you have not paid yes,if not it wont.
For private, recreational use, no. And this applies to all states.
Yes, so long as you have a CDL corresponding to or exceeding the weight rating of that vehicle, as well as a passenger endorsement.
No. The M35A2 has a GVW of less than 26,000 lbs.
So long as they operate only on private property, yes.
Yes, it will be reported to New York DMV. While points do not transfer from SC to New York on a regular license, a SC speeding conviction will be recorded on your CDL and could be used to suspend it.
You can get a CDL. The difficult part will be finding employment.
The state of New York requires anyone operating a vehicle over 18,000 lbs. Gross Vehicle Weight Rating which is not exempt from CDL requirements by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration to possess a CDL of the appropriate class. Additionally, any operating a vehicle of any weight class which is either transporting a quantity of hazardous materials which requires placarding, or is designed to transport more than 15 persons (including the driver) must possess the appropriate class of CDL with necessary endorsements.
New York State requires anyone operating a for-hire vehicle with a gross weight of over 18,000 lbs. within the state of New York to get a CDL for that vehicle - they are the only state to do such. Other than that, the only circumstances in which a CDL would be required (whether it had air brakes or not - the presence or absence of air brakes has no impact on whether or not that vehicle needs a CDL) is if it's a bus designed to transport more than 15 persons (including the driver), or if it's carrying a quantity of hazardous materials which requires the display of placards.
You can get the CDL. Finding employment with two DUIs on your record will be the problem.
