    App on File

    Don't worry about leading other colleges on. Not at all. Everyone deserves to have a back up plan and everyone must take time to plan.

    DUI Arrest, possible outcomes are dismissed or negligence 1

    Shipping companies do not like seeing any speeding records (car). My guess they wouldn't like seeing a DUI either. Millions of dollars in cargo, ship, etc are on the line. Keeping one's nose squeaky clean is important.
