    You're good to go, schlepper004! With only one minor thing on your DL, your background checks should not form an impediment to the hiring process. BBMYLS2GO was 100% right: any company that wants to run a credit or background check on you must have your legal signature on a release statement ("I the undersigned authorize Company X to access this report, etcetc.) before they can run it.

    DAC Services (now USIS, Inc.) collects a variety of records from many different kinds of companies. Bad credit or no credit possibly may prevent you from signing up for a company's lease-purchase program, but not from getting hired, I wouldn't think.

    The only records DAC has on file that should concern drivers seeking new employment are:

    1.) records of previous employment with other trucking companies, and

    2.) criminal records.

    As it stands now, if you haven't worked for anyone yet, both of your DAC reports for 1.) & 2.) should be empty. Most big trucking companies can access the national MVR database, so they don't rely on DAC for this info.

    On a personal note, I worked for Swift for 2 months in 2006, which was my 1st (and last) OTR driving job. When I quit (long sordid story, don't ask) they reported to DAC that they had fired me and also reported an accident that did not happen. I had to go through the appeal process to have the accident record removed from my DAC report, which took about a month. During that time I missed out on a couple of good job opportunities. This is why it's always a good idea to know what's on your DAC before you apply for a job.


    It's,
    BRG

    They did have a website that you could goto and it gave you all the info and you could do a membership right there.

    I just got my usis report back. On the Transportation Employment History page, under the Accident/Incident Record, it reads as follows;

    Equipment was involved in an occurrence or act that produced unintentional injury, death, property damage of any type, or resulted in the equipment requiring a tow (other than mechanical breakdown) while assigned to the driver regardless of fault. Adverse information is reported for 7 years.

    Number of DOT Recordable accidents less than 7 years old: 0
    Number of Non DOT recordable Accidents/Incidents less than 7 years old: 0

    No additional accident/incident information available.

    [ END OF REPORT ]

    I left a company during my second week of training. I just called dispatch and said I was getting out in Madison, leaving my trainer to continue to the east coast with our load. I sent a letter explaining why I decided to leave a couple days later, along with a fuel card (unactivated). I wasn't issued any equipment, in fact I had to buy the hard hat which I left behind.

    So what is this report actually saying...? Does the script at the begining indicate that I did one of those bad things, or is the line saying that I had "zero" accidents/incidents, DOT Recordable or otherwise mean my record's clean? Welcome your coments. :biggrin_2554:

    POSSIBLY, what they are saying is that since YOU left your trainer while under-load, YOU abandoned the vehicle requiring the company to put another driver in the truck. Truck Abandonment is a REAL SERIOUS offense.

    I didn't read that at all. What it says is 1st a description of what is reported THEN how many you have. Which is none.

    If the company you left had done a report you will see a separet area where company "A" report your time there. Depending on WHY you left would depend on if they would bother even reporting anything.

    That report does not say he abandoned a truck.
