Chapter 10 - CDL Administration
Rule 31-1-10.4 - Roving Teams
Current through September 24, 2024
1. You are required to call the Driver Records Dept. (or wherever you are designated to call) in order to inquire on your applicants. Those assisting you will need the following information from you in order to complete the inquiry: Full name, date of birth and Social Security Number. If the inquiry response returns "possible matches", you and the person helping you must determine if the applicant and the inquiry response information are the same individual. If they are, they will in return tell you whether or not to license the individual based on the statuses received. If their response to you is "Do not license", they will be relaying pointer information to you. This information will consist of each state and corresponding phone number that may have an outstanding action against that driver. It is the driver's responsibility to resolve the issue.
2. PDPS is required by law, NCIC checks are not. The NCIC checks are part of your licensing policies and procedures and should continue to be so.
3. PDPS will only give you status information and the state of action (no violation information). The NCIC transactions will give you a complete driver history plus wanted information.
4. PDPS will tell you about problem drivers only. PDPS will not show any type of valid license that the driver may hold. NCIC checks will show any valid license that the driver may be holding along with any outstanding actions against the driver.
