Question

Can a person with 4 ponits on his license get cdl?

Answer 1

It all depends on what the 4 points are for. Most of the time for minor infractions you can, but if its for bigger things than usually they turn you down.

Answer 2

Since I dont know where you are from I can give you an example.............

Due to you being a holder of a Commercial Driver's License (CDL) you probably know that moving violation citations are taken seriously and usually have more points assigned to them than if you held a regular passenger driver's license.

For example, in California a violation received in a commercial vehicle carries one and one-half times the point count so if you are licensed there instead of receiving the normal 1 point for disobeying a traffic sign it would 1.5 points on your CDL.

If you get too many points as a Commercial Driver you will lose your privilege to drive. In California you are considered a negligent operator of a commercial motor vehicle when your driving record shows the following point counts:

4 points in 12 months

6 points in 24 months

8 points in 36 months

You may be entitled to a higher point count (6, 8, or 10 points) if you request and appear for a hearing and if 4, 6, or 8 points were not obtained in a Class C vehicle.

In Florida if you have a CDL and 3 traffic violations within 3 years you are disqualified from driving a commercial motor vehicle for 120 days. Two traffic violations within 3 years is a 60 day suspension. After either suspension period you have to pay a fee to restore your CDL.
