Most commercial driving cases are heard in traffic courts that have a well-established process for reporting convictions to state driver license agencies. However, felony commercial driving cases are more complex, and the process for reporting relevant convictions includes multiple hurdles from citation to record update.
NCSC is working with a variety of stakeholders across the country: law enforcement, judges, clerks, court staff, prosecutors, and driver license agency staff to study reporting constraints and document what is working to ensure driver history records include felony convictions.
In the fall of 2023, NCSCS hosted three workshops on CDL felony reporting. The first workshop was hosted on September 27th and entitled "Data Quality and Transmission". The second workshop was hosted on October 25th and entitled "Business Process". The third was entitled "Prototypes" and hosted on November 8th. Below please find reports summarizing each workshop.
