Title: ●Safety Performance History of New Drivers 
Abstract: This action proposes amending FHWA regulations to specify minimum safety information that new or prospective employers must seek from former employers during the investigation of a driver's employment record. This action also proposes to increase the period of time for which carriers must record accident information in the accident register from one to three years. This proposal was mandated by the Hazardous Materials Reauthorization Act of 1994. This rule is also impacted by TEA-21, Section 4014 and given a new statutory deadline of 1/99. Public Law 105-347 may affect this rule because it discusses the release of employment information by consumer reporting agencies currently investigating this issue.
