Why is it important for Blue-Stripe drivers to maintain a valid driver’s license?

Maintaining a valid driver's license is crucial for Blue-Stripe drivers because it is a legal requirement for operating vehicles on public roads. A driver’s license serves as a government-issued permit that demonstrates an individual’s ability to drive safely and abide by traffic laws. In the context of O'Hare Airport operations, compliance with legal requirements ensures not only the safety of the driver but also the safety of passengers and other road users. Operating vehicles without a valid license would put both the driver and the company at risk of legal penalties, liability issues, and could lead to increased safety hazards. Ensuring all drivers have valid licenses also upholds the credibility and professionalism of the Blue-Stripe program as part of airport operations.
