Actually, this went into effect many months ago, it's just that no one knew about it. A friend of mine is a big union guy at another carrier dealing with these sort of issues, and he had told me about it. Kind of sneaky because the first you may find out about it is when it's time to get your medical renewed and realized they've changed the DUI question on the form. Problem is, it can take a couple or three months to sort out.

His advice: if you've ever been even arrested for it, even if it was reduced to say, reckless driving, go get your medical renewed say 2-3 months early. That way you have time to jump through the hoops for your new certificate while the old one is still valid.
