When you hold a commercial drivers license, the law holds you to a much higher standard. The regulations are strict and violation of many of them will result in a suspension, disqualification, or revocation of your CDL.
Without your CDL, you will likely need to find an alternative career path. Convictions, even though seemingly minor, may result in you loosing your job. In order to protect your income and livelihood, you should always contact a Columbus traffic attorney whenever you are facing a traffic violation.
When you are charged with certain offenses, your driver’s license can be suspended. Convictions for certain offenses can also result in suspensions. When you have a commercial drivers license, those charges and/or convictions can result in suspensions as well as disqualifications. The following is a list of CDL disqualifications and the length of time they last. They are imposed in addition to any other penalties provided in the Ohio Revised Code.
If you have your commercial driver’s license, regardless of whether you drive commercially or not, many offenses will impact your ability to legally drive at all.
