Commercial Driver's Licenses (CDL)

John handles CDL violations all over the state of Kentucky, including all counties along all interstates and parkways, such as: I-75, I-275, I-64, I-65, I-165, I-265, I-71, I-24, and I-69, as well as the AA Highway, Mountain Parkway, Bluegrass Parkway, Western Kentucky Parkway, Pennyrile Parkway, Purchase Parkway, Cumberland Parkway and Daniel Boone Parkway.

 

A commercial driver’s license is a livelihood, and a ticket for a CDL driver isn’t just a “traffic ticket.” John makes every effort to mitigate CDL violations and citations, often without the attendance of the driver. We also have a streamlined process to handle the ticket easily – with the driver and company in mind.

 

Drivers have been required to have a CDL in order to drive certain CMVs (Commercial Motor Vehicles) since April 1, 1992. The following offenses can negatively affect a CDL.
