DWI Team

Can you lose your CDL for a DWI if you weren't driving a commercial vehicle?

Yes. A DWI in your personal car can still put your commercial driver's license at risk.

Many CDL holders are surprised to learn that it doesn't matter whether you're driving your Toyota Prius or a Mack truck.

Alcohol and drug-related driving offenses can lead to the suspension of your CDL, and a conviction can result in a one-year revocation or even longer.

If you hold a commercial driver's license, it's important to understand how DWI laws can affect your livelihood.

Think a DWI can’t happen in a parking lot or on private property?

That’s a common misconception, and it can cost you.👇

If a road, lot, or area is generally accessible to the public, it is legally considered a public highway. That means a DWI can still apply, even if it is not a traditional road.

Parking lots. Private roads. Shared spaces.
They are not always as “private” as they seem.

Understanding this can make all the difference in protecting your future. Because when it comes to DWI laws, clarity matters, and so does having the right support.

We’ve got you. Start to finish.

When does a DWI become a felony in New York?

Here’s what you need to know 👇

A DWI can be charged as a felony in two situations:

• If you’ve had a prior DWI (or DWAI-Drugs) within the last 10 years
• If there was a child under 16 in the car at the time of the arrest

That second one is known as Leandra’s Law, and it can apply even if it’s your first offense.

This is where things get serious, but it’s also where having the right support matters most. You still have options. You still have a path forward.

Your comeback starts with understanding what you’re facing.

What’s the difference between a DWI, DUI, and DWAI in New York?

First thing to know. DUI isn’t actually a charge in New York.

Here’s what you can be facing:

A DWI means your blood alcohol content is .08 or higher, or an officer believes you were intoxicated based on what they saw. That’s a misdemeanor.

A DWAI is a lower-level offense, but it still matters. You can be charged if you’re impaired to any extent, even below .08. That’s a traffic infraction, not a crime.
Different charges, different consequences. But all of them can affect your license and your future.

If you’re dealing with this right now, you’re not the only one. And you’re not out of options.
