MVR & State Driver Records

A pre-employment MVR is required from every state where the driver held a license or permit during the prior three years. An annual MVR is required from every state where the driver currently holds (or held during the prior twelve months) a license. Both are signed-and-dated by the carrier with a §391.27 List of Violations review.

The MVR cluster below covers the full lifecycle: how to read each section line-by-line, how MVRs differ from CDLIS history files, how to apply the §391.15 disqualification analysis to convictions and administrative actions, and how to cross-walk MVR data into the PSP / clearinghouse pre-employment query workflow.

For most carriers the MVR is also the renewable annual signal: the §391.25 Annual Driver Review uses the prior 12 months of MVR plus a written certification of violations to confirm continued qualification. A clean MVR plus a signed §391.27 list closes out the file for another year.

Pricing-wise, a single-state MVR runs about $14.95 in the MVR-only package; the MVR + CDLIS bundle fills the multi-state gap by hitting every state where the driver has held a CDL since 1996 in one query.
