By the way, Dr. Paul is correct that this information is to be shared with Mexico and Canada. Section 203(a) requires that "To be eligible to receive any grant or other type of financial assistance made available under this title, a State shall participate in the interstate compact regarding sharing of driver license data, known as the 'Driver License Agreement', in order to provide electronic access by a State to information contained in the motor vehicle databases of all other States."
This "Driver License Agreement", contrary to the impression contained in the bill, includes not only states of the USA but also any "territory of Canada or any state of the Republic of Mexico or the federal district of Mexico." Source
Let me assure you that information IS shared. I got a normal speeding ticket near Ottawa Canada, and New York nearly pulled my license for it. (Ain't that sweet? NY punishing a US citizen for a traffic violation in another COUTNRY!)
Thanks for posting that inquest. What say ye Condor51?
Also, Article X (Information Exchange) , "B" of the DLA states:
The licensing authority of a member jurisdiction shall report to the licensing authority of the Jurisdiction of Record within 30 days of receipt each conviction and administrative action as designated in the DLA Code, as well as failures to comply. Such report shall identify the person involved and shall include any other information as may be specified in the rules.That is a far cry from someone in Mexico logging into a database and pulling John Q Publics driving record, or any info for that matter.
