The first thing this driver needs to do is get a lawyer and plea this charge down to a reckless driving charge, if possible.
I can relate (at least part of )what has happened here with DUIs. One driver in case, lost his driving permit and after many court hearings received a "work related only permit", meaning he could drive to and from work and while at work. The kicker came when someone in the district office found out, they determined that the work permit was not good for commercial vehicles and that package cars are commercial vehicles in this situation. The union says that since our trucks can be operated with a standard operator license that they should not be considered commercial( hearings still pending on this). The driver in question has been working inside at a lower pay rate in the meantime, the DUI drops off in a couple of months and he can go back to driving.
