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.

∙ 11y agoThe question is when your last one was. You can get a CDL again, but if you don't have at least five years between now and your most recent DUI conviction, you're going to find yourself in a real bad way when it comes to finding employment. Having multiple DUIs, you really need to have at least seven years...

∙ 13y agoAs long as you've met the conditions to have your licence reinstated after the DUI convictions, yes, you can upgrade to a CDL. However, if either of those convictions happened within the last three years, you might want to wait on that. If either of them happened within the last five years, you're probably still better advised to wait. The realistic chance of being employed as a CMV operator under those conditions.... the odds aren't in your favour.

∙ 13y agoSo long as the suspension/revocation periods resulting from those DUI convictions have passed, and your driving privileges have been reinstated, then, yes, you can upgrade your licence to a CDL. Fortunately, however, trucking companies aren't going to want anything to do with you with two DUI convictions. If either of those DUI convictions have occurred in the past 10 years, your chances of finding employment in the trucking industry are... let's just say less than favourable. Not that your prospects really look that good after two DUI convictions to begin with, regardless of how much time has elapsed since you got them.

∙ 13y agoYes, you can. Fortunately, no company operating CMVs is going to want anything to do with you after two DUIs.

∙ 12y agoYou could. Fortunately, no employer is even going to consider hiring you as a CMV driver with a record like that.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoYou could. Fortunately, three DUI convictions is going to make most prospective employers.. shall we say, less than willing, to trust you behind the wheel of one of their trucks.

What happens in Kentucky to your CDL license if you get 3 DUI's?
After you get a DUI (even the first time), your license gets suspended. Technically, you can still get or reinstate a CDL after three DUIs, once you've met all the requirements for reinstatement of your license. Fortunately, nobody would even consider hiring you with a record like that. And anyone company which would is probably destined to be shut down by the FMCSA at some point, anyhow. Go find another line of work. It'll be better for all of us.

Can you get cdls after three DUIs in South Carolina?
So long as you've met the conditions for reinstatement of your licence, you can upgrade to a CDL. However, with three DUIs, you may want to consider other career options, unless your DUIs occurred a very long time ago. If any of them have occurred within the last three years, you're untouchable to any prospective employer. If any of them have occurred within the last ten years, it's still going to be an uphill battle to try finding someone who'll hire you. If you have multiple DUIs within the past ten years, you once again gain that 'untouchable' status.
