What is the penalty exposure for a CDL holder convicted of texting while driving a commercial motor vehicle?
a.A verbal warning from the officer
b.Substantial civil penalties, and disqualification for 60 days after two convictions in three years or 120 days after three convictions
c.Loss of the medical certificate
d.Immediate lifetime disqualification
Explicación
Texting is classified as a serious traffic violation, so repeat convictions bring the 60-day and 120-day disqualifications along with civil penalties for drivers and employers. A warning understates the consequence, medical certification is unrelated, and lifetime disqualification is reserved for major offenses.
