the driver license compact came into existence with nevada becoming the first member in 1960. organizations in the western states such as governors came together to cooperate on traffic safety. under the beamer resolution ("interstate compacts for highway safety resolution"), public law 85-684, enacted on august 20, 1958, 72 stat. 635 (named for rep. john v. beamer, r-indiana), states were automatically given permission to form compacts in the areas of traffic safety. originally, the driver license compact dealt with dangerous driving violations such as drunk driving, reckless driving, commission of a felony involving a motor vehicle and others. later on, minor violations were included as well. quite a few states joined in the 1960s but it languished in the 1970s and part of the 1980s. in the late 1980s, there was a push by the aamva to get states to join and in the early to mid 1990s, quite a few states joined.
