    Commercial drivers must follow strict regulations both in and out of their commercial vehicles to maintain their CDL license. Certain traffic violations in a personal vehicle, such as a DUI, refusing an alcohol test, or leaving the scene of an accident, can result in disqualification of a CDL. Additionally, commercial drivers must notify their employer within 30 days if convicted of a traffic violation in any vehicle, and the Iowa DOT if the conviction occurred out of state. Multiple reckless driving or speeding violations in a commercial vehicle will also cause suspension of CDL privileges in Iowa. Maintaining responsible driving habits both on and off duty is important for commercial drivers to avoid penalties to their livelihood.
