The goal of the Financial Responsibility Division is to identify those individuals who do not drive safely, to assist individuals in becoming safe drivers, or to deny driving privileges to those who can not or will not drive safely, and aid the courts in collecting traffic violation fines and support orders. The main focus of this Division in 1998 was to implement document imaging.
All paper is to be scanned or imported and indexed into electronic folders.
Although there have been some problems, document imaging has provided more space in our file cabinets and has improved customer service for those individuals that have electronic folders. With the electronic folders more staff can have access to the folder simultaneously and information can be provided to the customer without leaving your work station. Hopefully in 1999 all problems will be resolved, the reinstatement computer work file will be completed, electronic insurance filing will be processed by the computer, and more benefits to document imaging will be realized. The following were legislative law changes required to be implemented in our Division in 1998. Computer programs were updated to allow for the reinstatement of ninety day administrative license revocation after the first thirty days of an ignition interlock device was installed.
