I had 2 DUI's about 6 years ago, is it realistic for me to become a commercial pilot?

How can you be charged with a DUI with a blood alcohol of zero? She was guilty
of having an open container; not DUI.


That has to be total BS, or there is more to the story.

Did this person actually bother to get a real lawyer and fight the
charges?

Were they "convicted" or "cited"?

Were they under the influence of something else, like a prescription
drug, that prevented them from passing a sobriety test?

Twice?

Cited, not convicted. She actually did get a lawyer and contest
the citation. It was dismissed. Even the issue of the open bottle was
dropped, as the person who was drinking came to the proceedings and
mentioned that it was his bottle.

I know that at the time, she was taking prescription meds for
depression, but I don't know if she had taken them when this all
happened.

Twice?

Amazing the things that happen in a small desert town called
Las Vegas.
