What Is a Driving Record (MVR) Check?

A Motor Vehicle Record (MVR) check retrieves a candidate's driving history from state Department of Motor Vehicles databases. It reveals license status, traffic violations, DUI/DWI convictions, accidents, license suspensions, and endorsements. For any position that involves operating a vehicle, MVR checks are essential for both safety and insurance purposes. VerifAI's AI analyzes driving patterns to identify high-risk drivers that a simple record pull might miss.

Why Driving Record (MVR) Checks Matter

Employers face an average of $1.1 million in liability per accident involving an employee driver. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that motor vehicle crashes cost employers $72.2 billion annually. For DOT-regulated carriers, MVR checks are a federal requirement. Even for non-regulated employers, negligent entrustment lawsuits can result in multi-million dollar verdicts if an employer failed to check a driver's record.
