Purpose: Support clear, responsible communication between roadway users.

1.1 Eligibility to Report
Any member of the public may submit a driving‑behavior report regarding any driver registered in the National Driver Accountability Database (NDAD) at any time.

1.2 Reporter Information Requirements
Reporters must provide their name and a description of the incident.
Email is optional but strongly encouraged, as it enables the registered driver to send an official NDAD‑approved response.

1.3 Accuracy of Reports
Reports must be accurate to the best of the reporter's knowledge.
Knowingly false or malicious submissions may result in loss of reporting privileges.

1.4 Clarification on Speed Compliance
Driving at the posted speed limit is lawful nationwide.
Reporters should consider this before submitting a speed‑related report.

Purpose: Promote responsible participation and constructive communication.

2.1 Maintaining Contact Information
Registered NDAD drivers must keep their contact information current to ensure timely receipt of notifications.

2.2 Approved Response Templates
Drivers may respond to reports only through the official NDAD response templates provided in the Driver Dashboard.
Custom responses are not supported at this time.

2.3 Communication Standards
Drivers are encouraged to respond to all reports in a timely, respectful, and professional manner.

2.4 Report Thresholds
Drivers who receive three (3) or more verified reports within a rolling ninety (90) day period may be placed into PDARI Review Status.
(See Section 4 for review procedures.)

Purpose: Provide consistent, nationwide clarity on lawful roadway behavior.

3.1 Speed Limits (United States Standard)
In all U.S. states and territories, the posted speed limit represents the maximum lawful speed under normal conditions.
Driving at or below the posted limit is lawful everywhere and is encouraged when weather, traffic, or visibility warrant reduced speed.

3.2 Following Distance (Universal Principle)
Every state requires drivers to maintain a following distance that is "reasonable and prudent" for conditions.
While wording varies, the principle is consistent nationwide:
Drivers must not follow another vehicle more closely than safety allows.

3.3 State‑Level Variations
States may impose additional rules regarding:

• minimum speeds
• work‑zone penalties
• school‑zone enforcement
• automated camera citations
• reckless‑driving thresholds

NDAD provides this information for clarity and responsibility, not legal interpretation.

3.4 National Reminder
Driving the speed limit is lawful in all 50 states.

Purpose: Support accountability and encourage healthy driving choices.

4.1 Automatic Review Status
Upon receipt of a third (3rd) verified report within any rolling ninety (90) day period, the driver's PDARI status will automatically update to UNDER REVIEW.

4.2 Notification Process
Drivers will be notified of their status change via email.

4.3 Meaning of "Under Review"
The "UNDER REVIEW" designation appears in the public NDAD database.
This status is informational and indicates that the driver has exceeded the recommended report threshold.

4.4 Reinstatement to Active Status
Drivers return to ACTIVE status automatically once the ninety (90) day window passes without additional verified reports.
(Automation is in progress.)

Purpose: Ensure clarity, transparency, and responsible use of the NDAD system.
