Each employer shall inform the applicant that the information he provides in accordance with section 1604(c) may be used and the applicant's previous employers may be contacted for the purpose of investigating the applicant's work history.
(c) Test vehicles.--Each employer shall provide a representative vehicle to any employee who as a result of the Commercial Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1986 (Public Law 99-570, 49 U.S.C. app. § 2701 et seq.) must obtain a commercial driver's license to continue his present occupation. This section includes, but is not limited to, current commercial motor vehicle drivers, construction equipment operators, utility truck operators, mechanics and vehicle inspectors employed prior to March 31, 1992.
