You've got between zero and no chance getting on with any major company. DUI's can be worked around, but most companies will only work with one and usually a minimum of 5 years or more (some are ok with it 3 years old). Again, we're talking only one. But you're talking about 3 of them and the liability for any company to hire you is just too great. Here's the scenario.

You get hired and then God forbid, get in an accident and kill someone. Alcohol is involved. The company that hired you with 3 DUI's might as well just sign the company over to the plaintiffs. There is NO company out there that is going to put their financial future in your hands and that is exactly what they would do if they hired you. It may not be fair, but that's the way it is.

Do DUI'S stay on your MVR report forever?

Depends on the state. Some states take them off after 5 or 10 years, others do not remove them. I also believe that some states keep DUI's listed for habitual offenders (2 or more DUI's).

Thank you, good to know. I've never had one but I do know people who have some things from their "younger" days. :lol:

if someone had 1 from their younger days, it may be understandable but 3 shows a complete lack of sense.

In most states a DUI is also a misdemeanor conviction. So it will show up on your MVR and criminal history. Repeated DUI's can lead to felony convictions.

people who repeatedly drive drunk need to go to prison, BEFORE they kill innocent people

Actually, I feel like calling them and thanking them for my Grandsons for not hiring someone who had 3 DUI's in their life. I know it's been a while but think, would you put your child in a day care if there was a sex offender there even if they were convicted 20 years ago. NO

I think after a persons second DUI they should never drive again FOR LIFE and if they get a fourth put them in prison for attempted murder.

Unbelievable!!!
 
I cannot believe the attitudes of some people on this board. Equating misdemeanor convictions to a sex offender. Some of you people need to take a long look at your own life. The only difference between you and I is that you were never caught. I have not had as much as a parking ticket since 1990. Who else can say that? Not many! Maybe the board is full of MADD women? Angry people with nothing better to do than put others down to make themselves feel better.

People change, and if they are not given a chance after proving for many years that they are not the same person they used to be, the world would be a very, very, sad place.
