Driving & MVR Records
OPENonline strongly believes that the review of
Driving Records is a critical component to a
comprehensive, defensible employment background screening program. Driving record
audits can uncover DUI convictions and other criminal offenses that may not be
found in a standard county criminal check, especially if that research is limited
to one county. Driving record reviews should be conducted as part of an
employment background check, as well as on a quarterly or annual basis.
| Product | Description | Coverage | Turnaround |
| National Driving Records | Provides interactive access to driving records in many states nationwide. Reports may include physical description, type of license issued, moving violations, accidents and DUI convictions.
