Answers:

How dangerous is it to drive with a flat tire?

Your kid's dad will lose his CDL for at least a year, if not longer, and that's only if it's his first offense. If it is his second, it will be three. On a first offense, most trucking companies will not hire anyone with a drug offense for one to three years after jail time and probation has been completed.

Has anyone gone over 200 mph?


Since his CDL is his overall license, any suspension will apply to normal driving. CDL drivers are considered to be professional drivers. Therefore, the fines, suspensions, etc., are more harsh than if the person who received these charges had a regular license.

Is it illegal to do a u-turn on a main road in the UK?


It's a shame he took this chance. CDL drivers are under such scrutiny with the DOT, that his future in over-the-road transportation isn't looking too bright. I wish I could have given you happier news, but this is the reality of professional driving and he should have never put the public, his family, and himself at risk by using in the first place. Good luck to you...Annie
