Realistic expectations...
...in regards to my driving record. A few months from now, I will go back to court to end my probation period from a DUI 5yrs ago that was deferred. From what I understand, a deferred prosecution basically means the DUI will be stripped from my driving records...I hope. Is this true? Will this hurt my chances of being hired as an OTR driver after I finish trucking school?

Most OTR companies want DUI's to be at least 5 years old. Once it is 5 years old you should be ok whether it is on your record or not. I say this assuming you only have 1 DUI...

Im not sure its all companies but many of them including us( Jb ), its 5 years from the last probation not the time of offence. Recently I had a driver who got a DWI 9 years ago, but I still couldnt hire him because he just finished paying off his fine last year.

Does my driving record(4 wheels) transfer to DAC?

Deferred prosecution will show on your record. You will need this charge expunged before it will not show on you record.
