WHAT ARE THE CONSEQUENCES OF A DUI WITH A CDL?

A DUI with a commercial license can have severe consequences. It can result in the suspension or revocation of the commercial driver’s license (CDL), making it impossible to legally operate a commercial vehicle. Additionally, it can lead to fines, probation, mandatory alcohol education programs, and even jail time. The individual’s employment may be at risk, as many employers have strict policies against employees with DUI convictions. Insurance rates are also likely to increase significantly.
