rampant internal fraud and lax security at state motor vehicle
administration offices across the country placing the reliability of
all driver's license at risk. While heavy public attention has been
placed on new national standards and new technologies for driver's

that basic management processes to stop bribery and theft are
lacking. In the report, CDT offers policy recommendations to address
this dire issue. February 2, 2004
