Monitor Your Drivers' Motor Vehicle Records Efficiently
Understanding the Importance of Continuous Driver Monitoring
Imagine this: Last week, you responsibly pulled the motor vehicle record (MVR) of one of your commercial drivers. Today, that same driver's license was suspended, yet he neglected to inform you. Unbeknownst to you, he continues driving your company vehicle for the next year because you’re due to pull the MVR again only next year. This scenario might seem hypothetical, but it's a real risk for businesses relying on annual checks.
Introducing Maryland's Driver Batch Monitoring Service
For employers eager to ensure their drivers retain valid licenses throughout the year, Maryland's Motor Vehicle Administration offers a solution: the Driver Batch Monitoring service. This service offers automatic notifications regarding any administrative actions taken against the licenses of drivers under your employment. Notably, it alerts you to suspensions, revocations, or cancellations, thus protecting your company from potential legal troubles posed by unlicensed drivers.
Cost-effective and Flexible Monitoring Options
The Driver Batch Monitoring service provides a cost-effective way to remain informed without constant manual record checking. Companies only pay an initial $12 annual fee per driver’s MVR. Following that, it costs just 8 cents per notification for any actions against a driver’s license. Alerts can be configured to provide updates on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis depending on your preference and business needs.
