PSP, MVR, CDL verification, criminal, and the Drug & Alcohol Clearinghouse — one screening, built for FMCSA hiring. Send an invite, the driver consents, and X3 hands you a clean hire / review / no-hire read tied to 49 CFR 391.
Illustrative sample · real screenings run through a credentialed CRA partner
Tell us about the driver and what you already have — our agent builds the §391.51 checklist, marks what's present vs missing, and flags the gaps that fail an audit. Grounded in 49 CFR 391, accuracy-reviewed.
Driver hiring under 49 CFR 391 isn’t one check — it’s a stack of them, each from a different system, each with its own consent and deadline. Skip one and you’ve got an unqualified driver on your authority and a hole in your DQ file.
PSP from FMCSA, the MVR from the state, CDL verification, a criminal search, and a Clearinghouse query — all separate. Stitching them together by hand is slow and easy to get wrong.
Each report is a consumer report under the FCRA. Bundle the disclosure into the application, skip the standalone authorization, or fumble adverse action, and a bad hire turns into a lawsuit on top of a safety problem.
A new-entrant audit or compliance review wants the complete DQ file for every driver. “We ran it but I can’t find it” counts as not running it. The paper trail matters as much as the check.
One invite. One consent. One clean read on whether to put them in the seat.
You send one invite. The driver consents once. Every check runs in parallel and comes back as a single plain-English read.
Enter the candidate’s name and email and pick a package. They get a secure link — no paper application to chase, no data for you to key in.
The candidate reads the FCRA disclosure, e-signs the authorization, and enters their info directly with our credentialed screening partner. The signed consent is captured and stored on their side — not on your desk.
PSP, MVR, CDL verification, criminal, and a Drug & Alcohol Clearinghouse query run in parallel. Most come back in minutes; the slower ones land as they finish, in one place.
X3 rolls it into a single hire / review / no-hire read tied to 49 CFR 391, with adverse-action steps if you need them — and files everything into a clean, audit-ready DQ record.
Government and report fees vary and are passed through at cost. Pricing shown is illustrative.
The essentials to qualify a driver.
Everything 49 CFR 391 hiring needs.
Screen at hire, then never stop watching.
Pairs with X3 MVR for ongoing driver-record monitoring after the hire.
Every report in a screening is a consumer report under the FCRA. The candidate’s standalone disclosure and written authorization are captured and stored by our credentialed screening partner. The carrier — as the employer with a permissible purpose under the DPPA — certifies that purpose; X3 runs the workflow on your behalf.
Consumer reports (PSP, MVR, criminal) and a Clearinghouse query will be obtained about you for employment purposes.
Screening-partner module mounts here
X3 MVR is specifically the driving record and ongoing monitoring. X3 Background is the full pre-employment screening — PSP, criminal, CDL, Clearinghouse — for the hiring decision. They’re built to pair.
DOT Complete captures the driver’s Clearinghouse consent and runs the pre-employment query. For an existing fleet, the + Monitor package captures limited-query consent for the annual check.
Through a secure hosted form from our credentialed screening partner. They read the disclosure, authorize, and enter their own details — nothing for you to key in or store.
If you take adverse action based on a report, X3 walks you through the FCRA pre- and post-adverse-action steps and provides the required notices and copies.
