Motor Vehicle Report
USA-FACT Motor Vehicle Report verifies the following information:
- Driving Record
- Arrests and Convictions
- Previous Addresses
A Motor Vehicle Report is available on a nationwide basis in all states. Since driving records indicate arrests and convictions for driving while intoxicated, or a history of reckless or irresponsible behavior, you may be able to uncover applicants with substance abuse and/or other behavior problems.
The information provided from the motor vehicle report is vital to your hiring decision. Normal turnaround time for the motor vehicle report is 24 to 48 hours, and in California enjoy USA-FACT's direct connection to the DMV posting real time results. Please provide the applicant's name, Driver's License number, date of birth (D.O.B.) and the state where the license is to be checked.
For additional information, regarding the motor vehicle report fees and availability, review the Fees Associated with Background Screening pamphlet.
