    I had 2 backing incidents over a year ago. I pulled my dac this year and nothing was on it. Am I clear or do these companies wait for you to quit?

    Not all companies report to DAC.

    If you apply for another job, they'll likely call your employer - at which time your employer will spill the beans on the 'incidents', which will probably just be sitting in your driver file.

    I would disclose everything, so they can see you're not trying to hide anything.

    I'm probably reading between the lines on your intentions here, but I figure that's why you're asking.

    Can't enter anything until there is a termination.

    I've never got a clear answer, but I think when a driver leaves a company that reports to DAC there is a formatted computer entry made. This is where all the information is reported to DAC.

    You have your DAC trashed when they fire you or you terminate!

    Companies want to know when you're looking for another job so they can try to hold onto you. They never update your dac when you're an active employee.

    Look around, you will find a few. I mashed green concrete curbing up in Sayre NY at the Vet Clinic there after being ordered to go down into the parking lot with a spread axle. Damage 600 dollars. It was reported but after explaining the situation that day to the new employer there was no problem. Had a awful lot of roofing material for that building that day and the construction boss wanted me down in there which wont fit. Ultimately I got it in there, at a price of his precious curb.

    The biggest thing an old company can do that raises red flags are will not rehire comments in DAC. Outside of that if you have a good reason for the negative information or can show that said information is wrong a carrier will in most cases hire you if you otherwise are OK for hire.
