CDL Disqualification

 While a sentence of court supervision may be a favorable sentence for an average driver in Illinois, it is not acceptable for a CDL holder. For most traffic violations, the Illinois Secretary of State will treat a sentence of court supervision as if it were a conviction. In other words, court supervision will not necessarily prevent the disqualification or suspension of your CDL. In fact, court supervision will not prevent the ticket from appearing on your public driving record even if you were in your personal vehicle at the time of the offense. Under Illinois law, a CDL driver is disqualified from operating a Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) if while driving a CMV they either commit two “serious traffic violations” within a three-year period or commit three such violations within a three-year period. #CDL, #CDLdisqualification,
