Remember back in school when teachers thretened to put things on your "permanant record".....just like that, exept its your truck driving record.
basically, its like a credit report for your driving experience.

DAC services (USIS) is a company that compiles employment histories and can perform criminal and driving background checks on people. It is primarily used in the transportation industry.
Employment records that are on a person's DAC report are only ones that past employers have reported to DAC. Trucking companies are under no obligation to report anything to DAC or to use their services.

Interesting tidbit:
DAC stands for Drive A Check, or with the appropriate accent DrivAh Check. :lol:
