Motor Vehicle Records

Motor vehicle records cannot be overlooked when employers are recruiting new hires, or even monitoring existing drivers.   When you weigh the potential consequences of failing to obtain motor vehicle records, the importance becomes clear:

• Companies who suffer a loss must usually pay higher insurance premiums.
• The National Safety Council (NSC) found the costs related to car accidents totaled a staggering $585.3 billion annually.
• According to the NSC, one death is caused by a car crash every 12 minutes; a disabling injury occurs every 14 seconds.

While obtaining motor vehicle records does not guarantee against future losses, the data contained in motor vehicle records provides a clear picture of past performance. In turn, the motor vehicle records data can foreshadow the individual’s future actions.
