Answer:
National Driver Registry or Driver's License Compact Block – ORC §4510.61, Article V
The OBMV imposes a block when a driver is applying for or renewing an Ohio license and is under
suspension in another state or held a license in another state which is suspended. The block is triggered
when the OBMV processes a driver through the Problem Drivers Pointer System, formerly through the
National Driver Registry.
The OBMV searches the Pointer System when…
1. A person is requesting an Ohio driver's license for the first time and is over 18 years of age
2. A person is renewing an Ohio driver's license
2. An Ohio driver is being re-tested due to reinstatement requirements
3. An out of state, licensed driver applies for an Ohio license.
Driver License Compact Suspension Due to Certain Out Of State Convictions - ORC
§ 4510.61, Article IV
The OBMV imposes a suspension when it receives notice from another state that an Ohio driver was
convicted of a traffic violation in the non-resident state. For the purpose of suspension, revocation or
limitation of the driver's license, the OBMV will give the same effect to the conviction as it would if the
conviction had occurred in Ohio.
Out-Of-State Alcohol Conviction Suspension – ORC §4510.17
The OBMV imposes a suspension when a driver pleads guilty to or is convicted of a violation of a statute of
any other state or out-of-state municipal ordinance similar to Section ORC §4511.19.
