My wife got a DUI last Oct. We checked into it and the company I'm leased onto will allow her to go back to driving with me after 1 year. However, your CDL is not valid until ONE YEAR AFTER YOUR CONVICTION. So, she has to wait till January. One year after she was in court for it. The only reason they will allow her back then is because she is my co-driver. She will not be in the truck alone.
