Corra Group is now offering the new CDLIS to accommodate its trucking and transportation clients so that they may determine their driver’s past history of where he possessed commercial driver’s license.According to the FMCSA, the Commercial Driver’s License Information System (CDLIS) plays a critical role in this effort by providing the information technology platform which all States and the District of Columbia use to transmit conviction, disqualification, and other driver history record information for CDL holders.
“We have a great number of trucking and transportation clients and the trucking package they need,” said Nick Gustavson, Corra Group Co-Founder. “To be compliant with Department of Transportation regulations, it is necessary that they run the Motor Vehicle Records search at least once a year for every commercial driver. Additionally, it’s important for a trucking company to know employee’s driving records in order to calculate insurance premiums that are based on driving performance.”
“We see scenarios where, despite the legal conflict, sometimes drivers will carry more than one driving license and not tell their employers,” said Gustavson. “They will have a driver’s license in one state and a driver’s license in yet another. We have had clients who are mystified when rivers are stopped for a violation and in worse case scenarios they are arrested and their trucks impounded. It costs many thousands of dollars to bail out the driver and get the truck out of the pound.”
