The DUI's are the reason your license is being suspended/ revoked for the DUIs . You don't get special treatment because you are a commercial driver.

Whether you drive or not with the commercial license is irrelevant. Everything is statutory.

Federal law states that if you're convicted of two or more driving under the influence cases, that your commercial class A or B endorsement is revoked for your lifetime. It does not matter if these DUI convictions were in your personal car or in your rig. Anyone who is a commercial driver must know that if they get caught driving under the influence on a first-time offense it's a one year license suspension and on a second time DUI it is a lifetime ban. Please share this information with all commercial drivers. If any commercial drivers charged with driving under the influence case they should go to a jury trial and fight to save their license.
