Supplementary Notes Prepared in cooperation with the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet 16. Abstract Quality issues related to commercial driver license (CDL) data present ongoing challenges to state and federal transportation agencies. This study highlights several problems with CDL data, including a lack of standardization for state-specific traffic infractions; process and workflow difficulties that degrade the accuracy, validity, and timeliness of data; adjudication procedures that can potentially mask serious violations from CDL driver history records; inadequate recordkeeping in state law enforcement citation and court case management software applications; outdated mainframe systems in urgent need of upgrades; IT personnel who are not paid enough; and insufficient reporting requirements for federal agencies that issue traffic citations. Best practices states can adopt to resolve these issues include undertaking renewed efforts to standardize state traffic infraction codes and equivalency tables; increasing automation of data entry and reducing repetitive data entry processes; amplifying outreach efforts to law enforcement officials, prosecutors, and judges that are focused on the federal guidelines which govern the adjudication of CDL-related infractions and their application to driver history records; including a CDL indicator in citation and adjudication software so that researchers and analysts can better track how CDL- related traffic are handled; increasing investments in new IT systems as well as personnel recruitment and retention; and improving coordination between federal agencies and the Central Violations Bureau so that traffic citations are reported to state agencies quicker. 17.

  • The National Agenda: a System to Fight Hardcore Dwi
    The National Hardcore Drunk Driver Project THE NATIONAL AGENDA: A SYSTEM TO FIGHT HARDCORE DWI The Goal: To protect the public by reducing the recidivism of hardcore drunk drivers. The Strategy: Mobilize an effective campaign to curtail hardcore drunk driving based on a coordinated system of mutually reinforcing components. Special criminal charges of Aggravated DWI and Hardcore DWI, with associated sanctions and remedial treatment, can provide the focus for such a system. The Rationale: A coordinated system is necessary to provide the framework needed to close loopholes in existing laws and programs, enact needed legislation, and ensure that the responsible agencies and organizations work together effectively to address the problem. For those states choosing to adopt them, special charges reinforce a coordinated system by requiring immediate identification and stipulating appropriate punishment and treatment that combined, act to reduce recidivism. By calling attention to the serious nature of the crime, a higher level charge acts as a general deterrent. Objectives and Tactics: Research shows that a system to deter, detect, punish and change the behavior of hardcore drunk drivers should be based on swift identification, certain punishment and effective treatment. An important factor for success is an accountable statewide planning group or task force, with representatives from pertinent state agencies and interested organizations, to spearhead change and monitor effectiveness. SWIFT IDENTIFICATION CERTAIN PUNISHMENT EFFECTIVE TREATMENT

Steven Johnson House Committee: Transportation and Infrastructure Senate Committee: Transportation Complete to 1-7-19 BRIEF SUMMARY: House Bill 6011 authorizes the governor, on behalf of the state, to enter into the Driver’s License Compact to allow for the sharing of information with other states regarding convictions and other driver record data. House Bills 5542 and 6012 amend the Motor Carrier Safety Act and Michigan Vehicle Code, respectively, to revise provisions concerning nonresidents who are issued citations under those acts. The bills take effect March 28, 2019. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: According to the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators, Michigan is currently one of five states that are not members of the Driver License Compact1 and one of six states that are not members of the Nonresident Violator Compact.2 The Driver License Compact (contained in HB 6011) deals with criminal convictions for serious traffic offenses such as drunk driving, hit and run accidents, and vehicular manslaughter, as well as other misdemeanor or felony convictions. The Nonresident Violator Compact deals with the issuance of traffic citations to nonresidents and the failure or potential failure to appear for or comply with a summons or citation.3 The Driver License Agreement is a compact written by the Joint Executive Board of the Driver License Compact and the Nonresident Violator Compact.

The Executive Committee of the Commission is charged with directing and super- vising the affairs, committees, and publications of the Commission; promoting its objectives; and supervising disbursement of its funds.
