Clearly the refusal to submit to a sobriety test was not dismissed. If it was then it wouldn't be on your MVR. Contact the court clerk (or have your attorney do it if you had one) if you think there has been an error, but I think you're going to find that they entered a conviction.

In most states a DUI is not only a traffic offense, but also a criminal misdemeanor. So you did good to get them to let you plead to something else. Shame it had to be reckless driving though.

The way fl works is a refusal and a dui arrest are 2 charges. They both were dismissed or should I say lowered to a reckless. Unfortunately Florida also suspended my license for the refusal administrativly. So that's gonna show in my mvr. The dui was the charge lowered to reckless. I wish I could report here differently. That's how it goes in my case. If I hired someone more expensive that was banging the da or something, maybe a better outcome. Lol

Not judging man, just trying to give you info. You didn't waste the $6K, just might have to sit on it for a bit. Worst case is you might have to do some refresher course later. Also, not an optimal gig, but you might look at some small dump truck or logging outfits. Often, they don't care what's on your record.

I appreciate you reply. I have been an auto painter for 18 yearsuo to now. I've been wanting to drive truck for years. My dad has been doing it for 40 years now. And I've always wanted to. My daughter just turned 18 and now I have the freedom.
I have made over 100k 3 times in the last 5 years painting cars, as a commission collision painter, but need a change. Money doesn't make everyone happy. I know I made a mista

Here's what I was sent as my DAC. There isn't anything under the screenshot except my name is other stuff. No violations though

That looks more like a PSP report than a DAC.

I appreciate your statement.

Then you have a big problem with hireright, unfortunately I was a member of a class action against hireright for incorrect information that cost me economically in a very bad way for years trying to hire on to good quality carriers without the BS mega bottom feeding. I got maybe 26.00 out of it. The Lawyers who built that levithan and forced it through the courts to a verdict made off with millions of it.

That is not your only problem. I researched and paid good money for investigating my background in trucking going back almost 40 years approximately. They find zip. Because usually the 10 year law requiring a scrub clean of all recordkeeping of violations or DAC etc. Many companies went out of business entirely, the problems went out with them. One called Covenant maintains their own in house private DAC of sorts with a group of 15 mega carriers in this Industry so that whatever you ever did in Covenant or any of the 15 companies associated with them will remain on the data base for life. They remembered that half day orientation that they sent me home. Then stated persona non grata and no rehire etc. (No love was lost with them then...) 4 piddling hours and you think a record written by that silly company makes a damning mountain of problems with me. HA... they need to get over themselves as I have.

Thinking further. You need to build with original notarized lifetime MVR Records showing that you had whatever licensing you had every year of your life since 15 years old all the way to now. Whatever the license was valid each month of each year particularly the ones you claim not to have a CDL during that refusal etc. Hold that for evidence that you never had a CDL in your lifetime until a certain point fairly recently.

Hireright has done you quite a bit of damage with that 2016 record screw up. I don't yet know anything about say 75 years of recording your violations. Usually after 3, 5, 7 or 10 years it drops off your records. UNLESS it is for life. It will never drop off. You can run to any other state to live in and those violations will just rubber stamp you in the new state following you all over the USA which was one of the big database goals for 2023 pending. (Another subject entirely. Once this database is up, every American Trucker who ever held a CDL will be in this living database at the federal, state, local levels so that no matter what anything you ever did bad with a CDL will haunt you.

But thats a problem for another day.

Hi. Just to reply what I mentioned on the 75 year thing, I found this online and it's also what I was told by the DMV so it looks like the suspension will follow me forever. I don't think every state is this tough but apparently Florida is.

Insurance drives a lot of the trucking industry.

Truck insurers have been doing this for a long time and the minimum amount of time for anything related to a DUI/DWI is 5 years from almost every insurance carrier I've dealt with.

The one that wasn't 5 years wanted ten years instead.

Some companies differentiate the severity of violations...homicide by auto, leaving the scene, speeding more than 15 over, and reckless driving are all big hitters.

Unfortunately the OP has a lot of 'wrong' on his MVR and it keeps him from being accepted by the insurance standard that a lot of carriers follow JUST to HAVE insurance.

1099 companies, local dump and logging, even bedbuggin' in addition to the known 2nd chance companies and self insured megas will eventually put you to work.

I've never questioned the source of qualifying experience when checking out a potential hire...insurance said 'yes' with confirmation of 2 years previous experience....2 years is 2 years...

Thanks for your reply. I'm am still waiting on hire right to get back with me on fixing my mvr. DMV claims they are reporting it incorrectly. With that said, I've heard a few people mention 1099 companies. why would they be able to insure me when other can't / won't? Also I have looked at jobs on my local cl and the 1099 ones seem to want a certain amount of experience. I have the double whammy because I'm brand new and have this mvr thing on my record. So I'd need a company to get me on and train me. I had a sure thing with Western but they have since put me on the back burner for now. Clearly opening up a dispute with hire right now makes my mvr not visible and Western can't hire me til dispute is done. At least with hire right which is the company most of these big companies use.

1099 means you pay our dearly beloved Uncle Sam Taxes every three months. Short, over, too little or whatever they come after you.
