Summary

The New York State Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) form MV-526, titled Driving School Instructor Termination Notice, is a mandatory legal document used by driving schools to report the resignation or termination of a certified driving instructor. Required under DMV Commissioner's Regulation 76.15(f), the form serves as official notification to the Department that an instructor is no longer employed by the school. Filing this notice is a critical administrative step for business owners as it helps protect the driving school from legal liability for any actions the instructor may take after their employment has ended. The school is also required to provide a copy of the completed termination notice to the instructor.

Pro Tip: To ensure a smooth instructor termination process and avoid potential liability, ensure the MV-526 form is signed by an authorized official, include the instructor's original certificate (MV-524), and accurately record the total behind-the-wheel instruction hours accrued. Be sure to provide a copy of the completed notice to the instructor immediately upon their departure to comply with state regulations.
