California CDL Class A Practice Exam

Driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol or drugs carries significant penalties due to the serious risks it poses to public safety. In California, a DUI conviction results in a 2-point penalty on a driver’s record. This elevated point count not only reflects the severity of the offense but also impacts a driver’s insurance rates and can lead to license suspensions and other consequences. Accumulating these points over time can result in more severe penalties, indicating the importance of understanding and adhering to safe driving regulations. The higher point count serves as a deterrent to discourage impaired driving behaviors among all drivers.
