Frequently asked questions

Can a CDL holder use Connecticut's nolle process safely?

An outright nolle or a genuine amendment to a non-serious charge protects your record; what federal masking rules forbid is any program that hides a conviction that actually occurred. Attorneys in our network aim for the former — real dismissals and real amendments.

Which Connecticut tickets endanger a CDL most?

Federal serious violations — speeding 15+ over, following too closely, improper lane changes, reckless driving, texting while driving. Two convictions in three years disqualify your CDL for 60 days; a third makes it 120.

I run I-95 or I-84 through Connecticut but live out of state. Must I appear?

Generally not — an attorney can contest the infraction and appear in Superior Court for you. Because the conviction would transfer to your home-state CDL record anyway, fighting it in Connecticut is the move.

Does a personal-vehicle ticket touch my CDL?

Yes — federal rules put convictions from your personal car on your CDL record all the same, so a weekend ticket deserves the same defense as one earned in the truck.
