AAMVA congratulates Maine on successfully implementing AAMVA's State-to-State (S2S) Verification Service, including Driver History Record (DHR) functionality, during the weekend of December 14, 2024, and becoming the 43rd participant using the S2S service. All migration activities have completed on schedule. CDLIS and S2S services are fully operational now. AAMVA would also like to thank volunteer jurisdictions Arizona and Kansas who assisted with Maine’s migration. Maine will now be able to use SPEXS to perform both its CDLIS and S2S functions. This means, among other things, that Maine can track pointer information related to its Base Driver Licenses, Permits for Base Driver Licenses, and Identification Cards. In addition, Maine will be able to use S2S Driver History Record functionality (DHR) to administer driver history for non-CDLIS persons, and to help ensure that a person has a single comprehensive driver history.
Maine becomes the 43rd State to Join State-to-State Verification Service (S2S) and 30th State to Join S2S Driver History Record (DHR)

Another benefit of S2S is that it is now possible to identify persons that hold credentials in different states at the same time. This includes the case where a CDL driver holds a CDL in one state and a non-CDL credential, e.g., a base driver’s license, in another state. S2S states typically resolve such situations by either deleting the non-CDLIS pointer, or by performing a CSOR on the CDLIS pointer. Such actions may be accompanied by telephone and/or email contact between the two states involved.
In addition to the above-mentioned functionality, DHR provides states with new measures to improve the administration of non-CDL driver history (DH). Specifically, DHR supports the electronic exchange of out-of-state convictions and withdrawals, provides visibility of individuals that may have DH in more than one state, and sets rules for maintaining DH in a standardized manner - all specifically for non-CDLIS drivers.
As a result of the increase in pointers, and consequently potential duplicates, when a state implements S2S and/or DHR, CDLIS-only and S2S states may for some time afterwards observe a higher than usual number of CSOR transactions emanating from the S2S state.
AAMVA also congratulates Maine for successfully implementing the CDLIS solution to connect to the Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse on December 15, 2024. Maine is now able to obtain the current prohibition status for a driver from the Clearinghouse and will also receive notification each time any of their drivers have a change in prohibition status at the Clearinghouse.
