MVR Monitoring Service FAQs

Every state is different in what triggers a negative driving event. Most states trigger suspensions, revocations and convictions. Other triggers include status change, accidents, cancellations and withdrawals. We will report on all of the information monitored and provided by each state.

We offer a 49-state (and District of Columbia) solution. New Hampshire does not offer a driver monitoring solution. We recommend that clients with drivers holding a New Hampshire driver's license run MVRs on a 30- or 90-day interval, which we can manage via our automated systems. This will ensure timely identification of any issues.

You can choose to have all or a subset of your drivers enrolled in this service. You might select a subset if you want to monitor activity for drivers in highly-regulated states or are operating a focused safety program.

As soon as a negative event is processed by the state it is identified through the monitoring process. This triggers an MVR to be ordered and sent to us. Once we receive the MVR, you are notified within 24 hours. This time allows us to audit the MVR.

Note: Each state's monitoring process is different. Some will provide monthly updates regarding negative events while others provide daily updates (typically weekdays only). For a given state, you can find the monitoring update frequency here.
