AAMVA Congratulates New Hampshire on a Successful S2S Launch
AAMVA congratulates New Hampshire on successfully implementing the
State-to-State Verification Service (S2S) during the weekend of June 12, 2021, and becoming the 34th participant using the new service. All migration activities have completed on schedule. CDLIS and S2S services are fully operational now. AAMVA would also like to thank volunteer states West Virginia and Rhode Island who assisted with New Hampshire’s migration. New Hampshire will henceforth be able to use SPEXS to perform its CDLIS and S2S functions. This means, among other things, that New Hampshire can now also track pointer information related to its base.

New Hampshire Kicks Off Pilot Testing for CDL Modernization Project
AAMVA is modernizing the 2005 CDL Skills Testing System administration with a project that began today. New Hampshire had a great day of testing with a number of different truck configurations, including tractor trailers, school busses, dump trucks and tree trimming trucks. Pictured in front of the truck, New Hampshire DMV CDL Examiner Shannon Hartley was the first applicant to pass the new test. The pilot modernization includes changes to the Vehicle Inspection (VI) test, Basic Control Skills (BCS) test, and CDL Examiner’s Manual test administration procedures based on Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) crash causation factors and advances in CMV equipment technologies.
S2S Driver
History Record (DHR) Administration Training
AAMVA is now offering a DHR Administration training course. DHR Administration 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 more than one DHR; and sets rules for maintaining DH in a standardized manner, all specifically for non-CDLIS drivers.
It is recommended that attendees have prior knowledge of S2S and/or represent a state that is already participating in S2S. This course focuses on DHR Administration. For other S2S related training courses, please refer to
intevista (AAMVA’s virtual classroom).
To enroll in this and/or any other AAMVA training course log into
intevista and RSVP using the course calendar.
