Companies That Will Hire With DUI's
Driving Under the Influence
Driving While Intoxicated
Have you tried CFI?
Hey I forgot to recommend you look into CFI and TransAm. Both of these companies seem willing to accommodate drivers whose transgressions are in the past. Also, you don't need a company based in Texas. I'm an over the road driver from Nacogdoches, TX, and have never worked for a trucking company from my home state.
OTR driving normally means you'll be hauling freight to various customers throughout your company's hauling region. It often entails being gone from home for two to three weeks at a time.
Over 20 years old? I wouldn't think that to be much an issue at all. I had a DUI 16 years ago when I was 18 and haven't had an issue. I can't remember my last company policy on them but obviously they hired me and my current company has a 15 year policy so I just squeezed by with them. I know there are companies with zero tolerance but I think there are far fewer with a zero tolerance policy. Goodluck
Driving Under the Influence
I had a DUI 35 years ago, Prime said not a problem

I think it also may be determined by how many DWI's you are talking about. It's none of my business, but it could be a determining factor.
