Motor Vehicle Records Check

Motor vehicle records (MVRs) are maintained by the Department of Motor Vehicle in all 50 states. ODM has access to all states and can usually have the results within a week.

Recorded on MVRs are the driving activities of the driver, such as moving violations, motor vehicle accidents, driving with a revoked/suspended license and driving while impaired. Depending on the state, violations are provided for the last three to five years. This report is also a good tool to verify the address, date of birth and identity of the individual.

If your candidate will be required to operate a company or church vehicle, rental car, or their own vehicle for business purposes, checking their driving records may be a reasonable risk management procedure.
