Truckers and other commercial driver’s license (CDL) holders have different rules and regulations governing their conduct. For example, in Texas, the blood alcohol content (BAC) for car drivers must be .08 percent or higher to be convicted for DWI. The limit for truckers and other CDL holders, because they can handle toxic waste, hazardous materials and dangerous chemicals, is .04 percent or higher.

It is also important for the holder of a commercial driver’s license to know that even if they are convicted of drunk driving (DUI / DWI) while operating their personal vehicle outside of work, they will still lose their commercial driver’s license. In addition, drivers from out of state will lose their CDL license if convicted of a DWI in Texas.

Therefore, if you are a CDL holder, and you have been charged with drunk driving (DUI / DWI) in Texas, you should immediately retain a DWI defense lawyer to provide you with an aggressive, knowledgeable defense.

Note: You have 15 days from the date of your arrest for drunk driving (DUI / DWI) to request an administrative law hearing (ALR hearing) or your drivers license will automatically be suspended and you will lose your driving privileges. Call 972-420-6560 today.
