-- Texas Criminal Defense Group has announced a specialized legal defense service for Commercial Driver's License holders in Texas facing DWI charges. The firm addresses the unique legal jeopardy CDL holders confront—criminal penalties and the potential loss of their commercial license and ability to earn a living.

The regulatory environment in Texas imposes disproportionate penalties on CDL holders compared to standard motorists, says the legal team. Non-commercial drivers face prosecution at a 0.08% blood alcohol concentration threshold, while commercial drivers are held to a 0.04% BAC limit—exactly half the standard. A first-time DWI conviction triggers a minimum one-year CDL disqualification, extending to three years if hazardous materials were involved at the time of the offense.
A second conviction can result in lifetime disqualification, with reinstatement possible only after ten years under stringent conditions. These penalties apply even when the DWI offense occurs in a personal vehicle during off-duty hours, meaning a single mistake can end a commercial driving career regardless of context, explains a representative for Texas Criminal Defense Group.
Therefore, immediate legal action becomes necessary due to the procedural timeline that follows a DWI arrest. After being charged, CDL holders have only 15 days to request an Administrative License Revocation hearing to contest license suspension. Missing this deadline results in automatic suspension, making it significantly harder to contest and potentially leading to no administrative remedy for the missed opportunity.
To help protect commercial licenses and careers, Texas Criminal Defense Group's rapid-response capability aligns directly ensures that drivers can mount a timely defense before administrative penalties take effect.
The highly qualified team employs a defense strategy that includes immediate case assessment, aggressive challenges to the legality of traffic stops and sobriety test administration, negotiation with prosecutors, and representation at ALR hearings. According to their spokesperson, the organization's attorneys have achieved case dismissals, charge reductions, license preservation, and evidence suppression in numerous CDL DWI cases.
