Motor Vehicle Records

An MVR background check is a background screening tool that examines a person’s record of operating motor vehicles. Employers will often utilize this check as part of their pre-employment vetting process when filling jobs involving a motor vehicle, such as driving a school bus, operating a tractor-trailer, or using company vehicles. An MVR will typically include relevant facts about a candidate’s driving records, including their license class, current standing with driving authorities, license endorsements and restrictions, suspensions, and expirations. MVRs also include information on infractions incurred by the driver, such as speeding tickets, moving traffic violations, and some criminal convictions involving driving.
