    I called dmv this morning and she said there was nothing I can do, super unhelpful didn’t seem to care that it’s my income. Called a lawyer he said if there’s no ticket involved he couldn’t do anything. I’m going to call again tomorrow and see if I can get a supervisor then I’ll call some lawyers. Nationwide cargo says I’m good but I don’t believe them they all say that.

    well, i guess you might be able to request a letter/report from

    National Driver Register (NDR) | National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)

    see what they send you about your CDL, suspension, etc.


    What are the National Driver Register (NDR) and Problem Driver Pointer System (PDPS)? The National Driver Register (NDR) is a division in the National Center for Statistics and Analysis under the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

    The NDR maintains the computerized database known as the Problem Driver Pointer System (PDPS) which contains information on individuals whose privilege to operate a motor vehicle has been revoked, suspended, canceled or denied or who have been convicted of serious traffic-related offenses.

    The records maintained at the NDR consist of identification information including name, date of birth, gender, driver license number, and reporting State. Based on information received as a result of an NDR search, PDPS will "point" the State of Inquiry (SOI) to the State of Record (SOR), where an individual's driver status and history information is maintained. .

    Possible NDR status outputs from system: No Match The individual does not have record on the PDPS. Match The individual does have a record on the PDPS. Licensed (LIC) Licensed means the individual holds a license in that State and the privilege to drive is valid. (Only drivers who previously had a suspension/revocation and have cleared their history are included here.) Eligible (ELG) The individual’s privilege to drive or apply for a license in a State(s) is valid. Not Eligible (NELG) The individual’s privilege to drive in a State(s) is invalid.

    Who submits the information to the NDR? State DMVs responsible for issuing driver licenses are required to send information on all revocations, suspensions, and license denials within 31 days of receipt of the convictions from the courts to the PDPS. How is this information used? Any time a person applies for a driver’s license or the renewal of an existing license, the State driver licensing officials search PDPS to see if the license or privilege to drive a motor vehicle has been withdrawn by any State.

    PDPS uses Personally Identifying Information (PII) – such as name, DOB and sex – to compare against information in the system for any probable matches. Additional PII (i.e. social security numbers or driver license number) are used to eliminate a person from a probable match if a probable identification is made

    How can I find out if I am listed on the PDPS? You are entitled, under the provisions of the Privacy Act, to request a PDPS check to see if you have a record on the PDPS. As a private citizen, you must send a notarized letter or “privacy act request” to the NDR requesting a PDPS check.

    if THAT report comes back clean, then take copies and send them in with any mail in applications, or, in person applications, or scan it, save it to your files, and include that with any online applications.

    i myself reached out to that agency, for Schlitz and giggles, a long time ago, in fact when the CDL came into effect in 1992??

    just to make sure everything was copacetic. (in excellent order.).. and it all was.

    Not yet.

    Keep in mind Orientation is a weeding out of the litter. People are sent home for a variety of reasons until orientation is finished with handing out fuel cards, truck key etc to the few surviving new hires.

    I don't know about Florida but most states do not suspend your license for letting a med card lapse. They simply downgrade it. Then when a new physical is obtained,states have varying steps to get it back to cdl status.

    Would a company really spend money on getting me over there for orientation just to send me home?
