Contact the DMV then and if the answer isn't good, attend school in another state and get a license there. -

Yes you can get a CDL. But the problem will be finding a company that will hire you. Most higher pay companies require no dui ever. Some will tolerate 1 if its older than 10 yrs. But 2 whew, even if you get your own truck, trl, and authority. Your insurance will be quite high.
Mr1Down5Up and BigBob410 Thank this. -

YEAR of your most recent conviction as well your 1st?
Any other related/non related Convictions?
I ASK from experience. My LAST DUI was August 1991, North Carolina.
I had to WAIT until 8/94 to APPLY for a License AND to August 1998 to be "cleared" to acquire a Class-A, per NC requirements. I quit Alcohol through a 30 day stay in a Treatment Center in '92.
2 Convictions will be a PROBLEM.
IF you have Quit Alcohol, it "might" give some leeway if you went through a program, however such may well have zero impact.
Thanks For Your Time!
CHEERS!!ncmickey Thanks this. -

I do agree with one point you made. The time frame is critical. 20-year-old DUIs means almost nothing today. A DUI 2 or 3 years ago much more so!Speed_Drums, Val_Caldera and Chinatown Thank this. -
Moose1958 said: ↑NOT in Virginia. If the OP has a fully unrestricted DL the OP can get a CDL here! I live here and deal with this from time to time. I'm not fully privy about NC, but the OP lives in Virginia Not NC. The points being fully unrestricted and as I mentioned and another said, the primary issue is getting hired later.
