Drunk Driving (DWI or DUI)

When you get a DUI, DWI, or open container, there's typically a license suspension period which follows afterwards. Once this suspension period is over, and you've met all the conditions for reinstatement of your license (including payment of reinstatement fees), you can get a CDL 30 days later (you must hold a valid DL in your state of residence for at least 30 days before that state can issue you a CDL). However, if you don't have at least five years between your DUI/DWAI/open container conviction and the time you're trying to find a CDL job, you're only wasting your time and money - nobody will hire you for any driving job, least of all, a CDL driving job.

Most insurance companies find out about DUIs and other tickets when they pull your driving record when your policy renews.

Yes. A DUI is not a disqualifying offence.

If your driving privileges are suspended or revoked by Texas for a DWI, this information is available to ALL state DMV's via an "interstate compact" of cooperation. Bottom line: If you're suspended or revoked in one state you are suspended or revoked in them ALL!

YES A BIG FAT YES

it can cause it i am 100% percent sure

If one is charged with a DUI the type of lawyer that would be best suited for the defense is a DUI Attorney. These lawyers are specially trained to deal specifically with DUI offenses.

Driving under influence of alcohol is not acceptable. This can lead to accident. The best choice is to stop and call for help.

A DUI conviction or any felony conviction becomes a permanent part of the convicted person's criminal record.

In Maryland, unlike most states, a DUI remains a misdemeanor regardless of repeat offenses. There are other factors, however, such as endangerment of a child, death, or sever injury that can lead to a DUI felony conviction.

Generally speaking, no. However, a DUI can can cause you to be denied entry into another country. Canada is a country that considers a DUI to be a felony, and as such, will deny entry.

nope. there are too many people with clean records that would get the job ahead of you and almost all departments will just look right past your application. sorry but find another career

Fines, suspension of your licence (typically one year from what I'm aware of), points added to your licence, increase in insurance rates, impossibility of being hired for a driving job within the first three years of your conviction, major difficulties in the same for the fourth and fifth years, slightly decreased difficulty for the sixth and seventh years after your conviction.

It depends on how high your blood/alcohol level is and if it is low you can get 3 demerit points and an $500-$800 fine. If your b/a level is over 1.5 or 2 you can go to jail but either way don't do it

The key to beating a DUI charge is understanding how the criminal justice system works. When the police charge you with DUI, they have to prove the charge in a court of law. They must prove that you were driving the vehicle while your blood alcohol content was over the legal limit. To determine your blood alcohol limit, they will subject you to a breath test or a blood test. There are certain procedures the police officers have to following when making a DUI stop and when arresting a person for DUI. The DUI check post must follow the requirements laid down by the Supreme Court. In case of a DUI stop, the officer must have reasonable cause to subject you to a DUI test. If the police officer did not follow the procedures or the DUI check post or stop itself was illegal, the charges against you will be dropped. You can also challenge the results on the breath or the blood tests. If you create doubts about the accuracy of the test results, the charges can be dropped.

READ YOUR PROBATION PAPERS - everybody's is different. Or, ask your Probation Officer. Depending on the conditons of YOUR probation you may, or may not, have travel restrictions.

I'm researching this myself. I contacted the Japanese consulate and they are a definite NO. It must be completely expunged (which is impossible in US now, it's on record for life and thus with the FBI for consulates checking abroad). I know Japan is a major employer for teaching English, but I'm trying to find other countries. Post here if you find any that will take you on a work visa, b/c I don't know either. You must ask the actual consulate of that country to be sure. I know you can't even visit Canada with a DWI (and vice versa for the US from Canada). It sucks.

A DUI in Florida is a misdemeanor up until the 3rd or subsequent offense within ten years, at which point it becomes a 3rd degree felony.

Mothers Against Drunk Driving was created in 1980.

A case may be "closed" in several ways. It can be adjudicated or dismissed with or without prejudice. A case closed by way of a dismissal might be refiled or restored to active status under the right circumstances. Cases are "adjudicated" when a decision has been rendered on the merits of the case, such as after a trial. Cases are dismissed usually because of some procedural matter, like failing to provide discovery on time. Confusion is caused in this area because even judges and lawyers tend to throw the word "dismissed" around like it meant adjudicated almost to the point where the two are no longer distinguishable for any practical purpose.

After consuming alcohol your brain starts to work inefficiently. The brain actually slows down and takes longer to receive and process information. Also your ability to multi-task will decrease and your ability to see at night will fall by up to 25 per cent. With your brain working slower your reactions times will increase.

You're basically asking if a vehicle that isn't being used needs tags. It depends upon the locality to be honest .. there is no universally appicable answer.
