5.7 million citations. That's how many were issued to commercial drivers last year according to FMCSA data.
The question is not whether it will happen. For most working drivers, it's when.
When it does, the math is straightforward. Pay the fine and accept the points (cheapest today, most expensive long-term). Or have an attorney who specializes in CDL law contest the violation, with fees covered.
CDL Defender from U.S. Legal Services gives drivers that option for a predictable monthly rate.. All 48 states. DataQ challenges included. Spouse covered for commercial and personal vehicles. No employer required.
92% of drivers represented in court are satisfied with the outcome. The best time to enroll is before the next citation.
What’s your plan?
