DWI Dismissed by the courts seeking a bulk tanker job need your advise

I don't think you are going to find what you are looking for here. I don't think there are any companies that will hire with a recent DUI. Or a suspension connected to anything that had to do with a DUI. Even if it wasn't. If alcohol and a vehicle were involved in any way they won't want you. Why pay a higher insurance rate when you can just go to the next application and hire the guy with nothing on his record.

Now there is always a chance you may get lucky. But chances are few and far between. And then what kind of company would it be.

If it were me in this situation and I really wanted to drive and I was really innocent. I would get another job in another field and use that money to find another lawyer and fight it with everything I got!!

 

[SI don't see the relevance of that question. If you are making a judgement that the OP was wrong to be DUI...well no kidding. That is obvious. I don't think we are having that discussion...the guy is asking how to get a driving job. If you are saying he shouldn't have a driving job...well that's awfully pure of you IMO. There is a thing called due process at stake here IMO.[/S]

EDIT: never mind. how did I let myself get sucked back into this again?

 

WOW I just don't get this one.

Here is what I am getting from these posts -

1 - he had gotten puilled over, blew over the limit and was arrested.

2 - it was dismissed.

3 - has talked to one recuirter who said he needs to go back to school for a refresher and then on the road he can go.

4 - seems to focus on the issue of being held being tried by the police but the case was dismissed which seems to trigger this question -

Did he try to apply for other jobs and see what he can do about getting his foot in the door before trying to fix anything?

 

Get another lawyer. Get it removed.

Doubt any company worth going to, will even look twice with that on your record.
Buy a truck, go O/O, apply for insurance, and understand why no one will touch you.


With that said, it sounds like you got the dismissal due to a technicality. Had the judge followed the proper procedure, the conviction would have most likely happened. Might be why the lawyer said it would cost too much and take too much time.

Good luck.

 

YOU might not see the relevance, but I do. You see unfortenetly I have experience on the subject matter. I'm not going to defend my question, if the o/p doesn't answer- let's just say I'll understand.

i will say though: your "guesses" about me are far far from accurate.(especially the last one)

 

Were are you from.

 

You may want to go directly to the commissioner of the North Carolina Motor Vehicle Department. Explain your situation directly to him.

If the commissioner does not have the 1 year suspension removed, then WAIT at least 3 years to apply for another driving job, explaining your situation to a potential future employer.

In the mean time, it is absolutely necessary that you find a job, other than driving, to earn some kind of a living.

From the sound of things, it is all in the hands of the North Carolina Motor Vehicle Department, as authorized by the state of North Carolina.

Perhaps the Department of Transportation, (D.O.T.), might be able to help you out on this one, you never know.

If the D.O.T. does step in to help you, perhaps you may NOT have to wait another 3 years to reapply for another driving job. It is worth a try. You never know.

NOTE:
Your driving history, as of 1980, is 33 years, not 30 years, not 40 years. Your math was off on this one. 2013 - 1980 = 33.

Good luck to you!

God bless every American and their families! God bless the U.S.A.!
