Motor Vehicle Record (MVR)
What is an MVR?
A Motor Vehicle Record (MVR) is a state-specific document that shows your driving history within that particular state over a period of time. Typical MVR reports show 3 years up to 10 years of driving history, such as traffic events and violations.
Who does it apply to?
All drivers who plan or intend on driving a Commercial Motor Vehicle would need an MVR ran and kept on file for the employment term of the driver.
- MVRs must be pulled within 30 days of hiring a CMV driver
- Insurance companies need MVRs to add drivers to insurance policies
- MVRs pulled for CMV drivers living in multiple states to get the full driving history
How do we perform this service?
Why do we need tp pull a Motor Vehicle Record?
Our DOT Compliance Specialists can issue a release form to a driver for approval, then pull an MVR for a specified state and time period. MVRs will be saved as part of the Driver Qualification File (DQF) and are pulled:
- within 30 days of hiring
- to add drivers to Commercial Truck Insurance policy
- for drivers living in multiple states
What steps are we taking for you?
An MVR must be pulled within 30 days of hiring a CMV driver.
Insurance companies will also need MVRs to add drivers to certain insurance policies.
If a CMV driver has lived in multiple states upon 3 years of applying for your company, MVR’s should be pulled from the respective states, to get the full driving history.
