What if I have a commercial driver license (CDL) but I am not driving a commercial vehicle and I get a DWI DUI?
If you hold a CDL and get a DWI in a non-commercial vehicle, you will still lose your CDL. For your first offense, your CDL will be pulled for 1 year. for a subsequent offense, it will be a lifetime loss of the CDL.
In these situations, you only have a limited amount of time to challenge the taking of your CDL. If you do not file your challenge in a timely manner, you will automatically be stuck with the revocation. This is true even if your criminal case is completely dismissed.
If you are a CDL holder and you are arrested for a DWI/DUI, call Gerald Miller, P.A. right away. Our experienced attorneys know how to handle cases like yours, and will take the time to sit down and discuss your options with you.
