PA DUI

Personally, I think that I'd drive a school bus before I worked for Trans Am.

Read their threads first, IMO.

 

Actually now that I think about it , it was the conviction date .
Got mine in Nebraska.

 

Think about it though, two years post DUI is really not that much time. I knew a guy who couldn’t get a driving job for a minor rear end collision. Took him three years from the date of the accident. Only did $900 in damages too and none to his vehicle and wasn’t even in a truck! A DUI is considered the kiss of death of violations. Worse than a hot drug test.

And trust me I know it’s not fair. Most people who drive over the legal limit don’t get caught. Mini do it for years and years even decades or even a lifetime and get away with it. Some guy had one too many glasses of wine at dinner with his wife and he’s the one that gets the DUI. For being slightly above. But this is the way the industry evaluates it. The reason is, if you go out and get in an accident and it turns out you’re intoxicated and have been drinking, that company could be on the hook for millions. They don’t want the risk. Alcoholics will risk driving drunk. They do it all the time.

 

Hate to say it OP but when I got mine I had 15 years in with no accidents and a spotless mvr ...that was 20 years ago and nobody would touch me for 3 years after ...and the choices then were slim .

 

Wish you well ! and it's a dam tough lesson that will haunt you for a long time .
I'm still paying off the back child support from the loss of income , along with the interest.

 

And it will never come off your state motor vehicle record .......

Don’t ask me how I know this......

 

Yep been licensed in iowa , Missouri and back to Nebraska since ...still there !
As another poster said : some people don't give a shat and keep right on doing it but ya can't tell em anything, I have a lifelong friend that's on number 4 and still drinks and drives ..and works for a trucking company lol. .on the dock and hel be broke till the day he dies or goes to prison for killing someone.

 

I wasnt referring to you and I'm sure your eyes are wide open as mine were 20 years ago , I still drink but I just dont drink and drive anymore.
Some people dont get that thru they're head .
