    hey guys I want know if trucking company's get the same mvr that I would get I am asking cause when I was 18 or 19 I got a dui and when I went to court they gave me a few months to go to dui school I never went and they suspended my license until I did go which was 3 to 5 years later but the other day I went and got a mvr on me and it didn't show up so I am wondering if I should even tell any trucking company's that I got a dui 17 years ago again this was 17 years ago and I haven't drinked anything since then only takes me one time to learn my lesson lol

    Full disclosure is always recommended. You dont want to work for dirtbags that would hold something that old over your head.

    I can tell you from experience that things from your past show up in random places at random times...might not be on your MVR but it is somewhere else...just my experience for what it's worth. Don't think something that long ago will matter...but most do ask if your license has "EVER" been suspended.

    ^^^BEST APPROACH^^^ You never want someone to ask you..."Why didn't you tell us about...."

    I cant see where 17 years ago would make a rats ... I mean a lot of drivers 23 only have 7 years driving history to analyze anyway. If its not on your DMV report from (that same state that you got revoked in and dui in) would forget to mention it. I think they only care about last 10 years (long as not bank robbery or murder ). Ive never heard of a truck company ganking someone over a license issue 17 years ago.

    Oh forgot if its a state dmv report from the license bureau and same states report you got revoked and dui in Yes it'll show the same stuff as the DMV report they obtain on you.

    When you say D.M.V. report. Do you Mean D.M.V. Abstract?. If so it tell"s you how far it goes back, the state i"m in is ten years, don"t know if it varies from state to state.
