HireRight/DAC is a private company. Large corporations both public and private PAY HireRight/DAC for info on somebody and to place false info on whomever they want for a fee.
HireRight/Dac was sued by the DOJ and FTC and was ordered to pay 2.6 million dollars back in August 2012. A slap on the wrist in comparison to the thousands of livelihoods destroyed.
HireRight/DAC needs to be destroyed and done away with. Hire Right needs to be banned from collecting storing ANY and ALL info on anybody.
MVR's and PSP reports are the only OFFICIAL reports. However, too many companies are using HireRight/DAC and are taking the reports on HireRight/DAC more serious than reports that ACTUALLY matter...PSP and MVR.
But not all hope is lost. There are companies that do not use HireRight/DAC services at all. In fact they AVOID using HireRight/DAC completely. The word is getting around the trucking industry that they are full of lies put on there by vengeful truck companies.
You can learn about trucking companies that do not use HireRight/DAC by filling out apps on truck websites like classadrivers.com, cdljobs.com, bestdriverjobs.com and layover.com
Don't give up!!!

You have to ask yourself why would these companies use DAC if they wheren't liars?After all how hard is it to pick up a telephone and say something like,no I wouldn't hire him back he had 2 minor accidents and I'm just not comfortable with him.It's all about control,they may not want you but they are going to make sure you don't work in the trucking industry anymore.Because DAC is not responsible for any lies they put in there about you,and you have to prove they are lies to get them removed,your going to lose.DAC is also a good tool for people that don't like confrontations,they let DAC handle it and they are out of the picture.
I also think,and I haven't proved it yet but one day I will,that the report you get and the one a trucking company gets are 2 different reports,so how many and what other kinds of lies have they told?
One would have to wonder why they would get rid of you over a couple of little scrapes.But then you have to understand if someone in the company don't like the way you comb your hair your going to have problems,or someone was just having a bad day.I've said it before,this is an ugly ugly business and to them you are just another tool just like their truck.
If I was you I would put applications in with everyone,someone will grab you,believe it or not alot of the companies know who the habitual liars are.Then with all the new drivers they are pushing thru the driver mills,your almost an old timer.
Good luck and God Bless,don't give up.
