CDL TRAFFIC TICKET INFRACTIONS & WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW

A commercial driver’s license (CDL) likely means you drive for a living. You work a in a highly regulated industry, which comes with it good wages, job stability, and benefits for yourself and your family. Driving is how you make your living and it is your career. You do not want to let that traffic ticket affect your way of life.

CDLs do not realize the serious licensing ramifications moving violations can have. For example, any speeding ticket 15 MPH or over the speed limit can be counted as a major moving violation. 3 major moving violations in a 3 year period can cause a 60 day CDL license suspension. If you were transporting hazardous materials, that disqualification is for 3 years. A conviction for DUI will lead to a 1 year disqualification. If you are convicted again, your CDL will be disqualified for life..

SPEAK WITH OUR ATTORNEYS BEFORE PAYING THAT TICKET

There are a slew of issues, which pertain to CDL holders than any other driver on the road. Since you drive thousands of more miles a year than the average person, and you may be transporting persons and sensitive cargo on the way, you are simply held to a higher standard of responsibility than anyone else on the road. Because you drive more than the average person, you are more likely to get a traffic ticket no matter how good of a driver you are. Don’t beat yourself too much about it. It is what you decide to do with your ticket that matters. Don’t let the DOL take your CDL away from you. It took you 160 hours to get your class A.
