He was a minor.
Did he lose his license? -
When you fill out an application, you sign a release giving potential employers permission to check stuff like that. Where I live, you can have certain crimes expunged, but anything on your drivers license is seperate from criminal activity and will show up. alcohol/drug offenses while driving are both criminal and administrative suspensions.

he was a minor and he got license suspened for 1 month.....Sometimes you can get a dui (while a minor) and go on probation so you dont get convicted of it but your license will still automatically get suspended for about 2 months here in Texas cause I had one of those....As a matter of fact Ive had had 3 license suspensions....One for refusal to blow.....one for dui being a minor.....and one just like daniel my friend with the MIP.Ive never been convicted of a DWI,DUI,or a felony though....We both would like to work at the same company because we both got our class a cdls from the same school and they referred us to go to swift.Swift requires you must not have a lisence suspension in the previous 3 years from your application date.The DUI i got was when i was a minor but i never got convicted of it since i agreed to go on probation rather than fight it but my license still got suspended for two months anyways because its state law even if you go on probation.So I wont let swift know about that because its useless to even let them know.As far as the Breath Test Refusal goes....only the police can see that....The funny thing about it and confusing thing about is we both are clean of suspensions on our MVR's.Swift does ask if your license was ever suspended,revoked etc so I will just let them know what the deal was with that because I apparently I got convicted of the MIP.....However the MIP is not on my criminal record or mvr neither or any of the suspensions and that goes for my friend daniel as well.I also know for a fact that class C misdemeanors dont get put on your criminal record and i believe when you turn 21 or when it becomes 3 years old the MIP automatically gets purged from what i have been hearing.Basically people are not perfect and my friend and I get with other people and then we start drinking and raising hell then the cops get called and we end up with MIP(Underage Drinking) We are in good shape tho because neither of us have been convicted of a DWI,DUI,or Felony.....Sorry if I repeated myself
