AAMVA's Mobile Driver License (mDL)
Guidelines Now Available
 The Joint Mobile Driver's License
(mDL) Working Group has been active in the area of mobile identification
since 2012. The Working Group produced a mDL Functional Needs white paper
that served as important input to the WG10 ISO working group. WG10 is in the
process of producing a mDL standard (ISO/IEC 18013-5).
Starting with ISO/IEC CD 18013-5 as a basis, the Mobile
Driver License (mDL) Implementation Guidelines document provides guidance
on pursuing a mobile driver's license (mDL) solution. Specifically, this
document provides comments and qualifications applicable to AAMVA members.
AAMVA recommends that, in addition to this document and ISO/IEC CD 18013-5,
jurisdictions consult two other documents produced by the mDL Working Group: mDL Model Legislation and mDL Procurement Guidance.
It should be noted that mDL and related technologies are ever evolving. As a
result, this document will continue to be updated to synchronize its content
with the latest standards and practices. Click
here to access the Implementation Guidelines document.

Legislative Alert: NHTSA Seeks
Expansion of State Notification of Recall Status Pilot
The National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration (NHTSA) is seeking expanded state involvement in the
consumer notification of motor vehicle recall status pilot. Citing previous
authorities delivered through Section 24105 of the Fixing America's Surface
Transportation (FAST) Act (P.L. 114-94), as well as the authorities provided
in the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act (49 USC 30101, et. Seq.)
NHTSA has issued an Information Collection Request (ICR) describing
a funding opportunity for all states to apply for a similar grant as that
awarded to Maryland MVA in its initial recall notification pilot program.
AAMVA members should note that the docket for the ICR is not meant to receive
grant applications, but is instead an indicator that NHTSA expects to
announce acceptance of applications through the grant process at a later
date. Read the entire alert here.

This Week's Webinars
NMVTIS
State Web Interface (SWI) – Understanding the Administrative Features
May 14, 2019, 2:00 -
3:00 pm (ET)
The NMVTIS SWI Web Application is
used by the states to perform title verification and data corrections. This
webinar focuses on how the states use the administrative features to oversee
the states user community. A brief overview of the SWI application is also
provided. The SWI application has been built so that each state manages their
own user community. This includes configuring the system with organizations
to which users are assigned. The state administrator is responsible for user
role assignments and user account activation and deactivation. The SWI
Application also includes a reporting component that allows state
administrators to monitor user activity.
Note: This webinar is for
AAMVA jurisdiction and federal members only.
NMVTIS
Suspense Resolution for Online States (AMIE Version) – Part 1
May 16, 2019, 1:30 - 2:30 pm
(ET)
NMVTIS has two third party
transactions that involve updates between the central site and multiple
states. Because the transactions involve multiple states and the central
site, it is possible for a transaction to break down before it completes.
Further activity against this title record is greatly restricted until the problem
is resolved. This webinar provides instruction as to how to identify and
resume suspended transactions. The intended audience for this webinar are
NMVTIS Help Desk Personnel, Business Process Analyst and IT System
Integrators.
Note: This webinar is for AAMVA
jurisdiction members only.
