§383.31 Notification
of Convictions for Driver Violations
Question 1: Must an operator of a CMV (as defined in §383.5), who holds a CDL,
notify his/her current employer of a conviction for violating a State or local
(non-parking) traffic law in any type of vehicle, as required by §383.31(b), even
though the conviction is under appeal?
Guidance: Yes. The taking of an appeal does not
vacate or annul the conviction, nor does it stay the notification requirements
of §383.31. The driver
must notify his/her employer within 30 days of the date of conviction.
