How long do you have to wait to get a cdl after a DUI conviction if you didnt have a cdl at the time of the conviction?
After you receive a DUI conviction, there'll be a period of time
where your licence will be suspended. You'll have to wait until the
end of that suspension period before you can get a CDL. However, if
three years have not yet passed between your DUI conviction and
present, I would advise you wait on it before upgrading your
licence. The points alone from the DUI conviction will make it
practically impossible for you to get a CDL driving job for the
three years following your conviction.
