I will say this...If you're in a truckstop during a reset and want to have a couple beers while you're relaxed in the sleeper. Don't have the keys in the ignition. I think an ahole of a cop could charge you with a DUI.
Before my dad died he was sleeping it off in a parking lot of an abandoned factory in an industrial park and a cop on patrol stopped, woke him up out the back seat and hauled him in. All because the keys were in the ignition. Cop said if he'd just taken the keys out he'd have left him alone. Go figure. It's really just best to not be anywhere near a motor vehicle if you're going to drink. -

EDIT: This wasn't one of the original links I found, but it points us in the right direction.

I will be the first to agree with you, that if it actually was what you posted in your first post, it is a chicken schidt situation. But I've been around enough to know how people sort of "gloss things over," (in politics they call it SPIN,) when talking about things that have happened.4wheelJoshua, Leftlane101 and SheepDog Thank this. -

Injun said: ↑I have no idea where this comes from or where to find it, but I've always been told a CDL holder cannot have more than .04 at any time behind the controls of any vehicle, including the reins of a horse. Absolutely no detectable amount of alcohol while driving a CMV.
I have never been able to confirm this. So it could be complete BS.
However, to your question "Are you allowed to drink?" Yes. Just don't drive afterward. Duh.Click to expand...
The two beer size is funny. I use to have a neighbor that his wife limited him to three beers a day. He bought them big stove pipes.
