Reason You Need This Information
A driver's license search gives insight into applicant's level of responsibility; determines whether an applicant keeps commitments to appear in court or pay fines; has a drug/alcohol problem; and gives the current license status. "Driving for work" is very broadly defined in most jurisdictions and is not limited to driving positions.
This information can be accessed by an outside agency on an employer's behalf. The alternative is having applicants personally go to the DMV to obtain their own records which is not practical and is subject to fraud. Some state DMV's also have a drivers "pull" program for firms that would like updates. Some states require special forms and return of data. Personal data about an applicant is not provided.
