“There is a willingness by all the main groups involved to support the formation of a trade association that delivers a best practice approach to driving licence verification for fleets.”
Supporting the initiative, Jim Kirkwood, managing director of AA Driving Services, said:
“There are a number of important issues involved here. On one hand there’s the safety issue of ensuring that drivers of company cars in a small fleet have the right entitlements. Then there’s the issue of privacy, as no-one wants to run the risk of exposing extremely sensitive and personal driver data to all-comers.
“We welcome the creation of the ADLV as real progress towards solving these issues, as it ensures appropriate data access governed by strict compliance and protected by effective security, in line with the DVLA’s data assurance standards. In this respect it meets the operational demands of both the fleet and insurance industries.”

- Licence Check
- Drivercheck
