Motor Vehicle Driving Records or MVRs are mandatory background checks for trucking and transportation concerns who wish to remain compliant with the Department of Transportation. The DOT mandates that MVRs be conducted on commercial drivers at least once every twelve months.
Other employers conduct MVR’s on their sales people in addition to criminal records and other background checks. So there is a great need for Motor Vehicle Driving Records.
That being said, States are in need of money. States are broke. The Department of Motor Vehicles in a good many states, in the past year or so, have raised the prices for driving records. While these background checks can be costly in some states, let’s face it, you need them and the states know this.
Be aware that the Oklahoma DMV is raising it’s rates considerably. The Hawaii DMV is also proving to be no slouch when it comes to price increases for MVRs. So be aware, and put some pennies aside–
