See the Driving Record Before They're Behind the Wheel of Your Business
Sapphire's Driving History Report checks an applicant's motor vehicle record for suspended licenses, DUI and drug-related driving offenses, failures to appear in court, and outstanding warrants - not just whether they'll drive a company vehicle.
Driving History Report: $7.00 plus applicable state access fee.
A Clean Interview Doesn't Tell You What's on the Driving Record
Driving records reveal more than driving ability.
Suspended licenses, DUI-related offenses, and repeated failures to appear in court are character and reliability signals, not just traffic-safety data.
Some states require paperwork before you can even order the report.
Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, and Washington require the applicant to sign a specific state form before an MVR can be requested.
It isn't just for company-vehicle roles.
Employers sometimes limit MVR checks to drivers, missing what a driving record can reveal about any candidate.
