Rule 31-1-10.13 - Problem Driver Pointer System1. The State of Mississippi, Department of Public Safety, is mandated by federal law to develop and implement a subsystem of the driver license system called the "Problem Driver Pointer System" (PDPS). This system will allow us to send "interactive" inquiries to the National Driver Register (NDR) for all drivers. The NDR houses information about all problem drivers (suspensions, revocations, etc.) in every state. Currently we can only send and receive interactive inquiries to the NDR on CDL drivers through the CDLIS System (a vital part of the driver license system). Other states are currently active PDPS States and have been for some time now. The Problem Driver Pointer System will go into production on January 2, 1995 for the State of Mississippi.2. As part of the licensing process, we are required to make an inquiry to the NDR/PDPS on first time non-minimum age drivers (all originals). If the inquiry response returns "possible matches", you must determine if the applicant and the inquiry response information are the same individual. If they are, "DO NOT LICENSE". The information you receive will contain each state, the state address, and phone number that may have an outstanding action against that driver. It is the driver's responsibility to resolve the issue with each state.31 Miss. Code. R. 1-10.13
