Irwin Siegel Agency, Inc. <br /> Motor Vehicle Record (MVR) Guidelines <br /> Selection of Drivers <br /> Driver selection should go beyond checking that an individual has a valid license. Having a license may <br /> make it legal for one to drive,but it does not necessarily mean(s)he is suitable to represent your <br /> organization behind the wheel. Driver selection should be based on written,road tests,an MVR review and <br /> other similar driver skill assessment tools. <br /> It is essential to assess MVRs when hiring new drivers and when doing yearly evaluations for current <br /> drivers. An applicant's driving history is one of the best clues as to his/her future performance as a safe, <br /> dependable driver. By making MVR reviews part of the yearly evaluation,the organization can be certain <br /> of maintaining the high standards in effect when the individual was hired. While some drivers use <br /> company vehicles,others use their own vehicles on company business. The organization should acquire <br /> Motor Vehicle Records for all agency drivers whether they use personal or company vehicles. <br /> Your organization's management is responsible for establishing and enforcing the driver selection <br /> criteria. We recommend that you consult with your attorney to establish that criteria. <br /> Recommended Acceptability Criteria <br /> The following recommended guidelines indicate those drivers who would be deemed unacceptable to drive <br /> an agency vehicle or to drive a personal vehicle on agency business: <br /> • One or More Type A Violations in the past three(3)years <br /> Type A Violations include: <br /> — DWI/DUI/ODI/OWI—Drugs or Alcohol — Reckless driving <br /> — Refusing to take a substance test — Fleeing or evading police or roadblock <br /> — Driving with an open container(alcohol) — Resisting arrest <br /> — Manslaughter or Negligent homicide using a — Speed contest(Racing) <br /> motor vehicle — Hit and run(Bodily injury or property <br /> — Driving while license is suspended or damage) <br /> revoked — Failure to report an accident <br /> — Operating a motor vehicle for the — Illegal passing of a school bus <br /> commission of a felony — Other violations considered serious by <br /> — Aggravated assault with a motor vehicle state law <br /> — Permitting an unlicensed person to drive <br /> • Any three or more Type B violations in the past three(3)years <br /> Type B Violations include: <br /> — Having a license suspended in the past related to moving violations <br /> — Moving violations,including: <br /> — Speeding — Failure to yield <br /> — Improper lane change — Careless driving <br /> — Failure to obey traffic signal or sign — At Fault Accidents <br /> Rcviscd 06/08/06 <br />
