1178.5
. (a) Subject to this section, the board shall participate in a pull-notice system, pursuant to Section 1808.1 of the Vehicle Code, with respect to all pilot trainees and all licensees.
  (b) The purpose of board participation in a pull-notice system pursuant to this section is to provide the board with a report showing each pilot's current public record as recorded by the Department of Motor Vehicles, and any subsequent convictions, failures to appear, accidents, driver's license suspensions, driver's license revocations, or any other actions taken against the driving privilege or certificate, added to the driver's record while the notification request remains valid and uncanceled.
  (c) As used in this section, participation in the pull-notice system means obtaining a requester code and enrolling all pilots and trainees who are subject to the board's jurisdiction under that requester code.
  (d) The board shall, additionally, obtain a periodic report from the Department of Motor Vehicles at least every 12 months. The board shall verify that each pilot's and pilot trainee's driver's license has not been suspended or revoked and whether the pilot or pilot trainee has been convicted of a violation of Section 23152 or 23153 of the Vehicle Code or Section 655.
  (e) Upon the termination of a pilot's license or the removal of a trainee from the training program, the board shall notify the Department of Motor Vehicles to discontinue the driver's enrollment in the pull-notice system.
  (f) For the purposes of the pull-notice system, a pilot and pilot trainee shall be enrolled as if he or she were an employee of the board.
  (g) The board shall be exempt from any fees required under the pull-notice system, pursuant to Section 1808.1 of the Vehicle Code.
  (h) The board, on an individual basis, shall also request the driving record of every applicant for admission into the pilot training program before granting admission to the training program, and shall request the driving record of every applicant for an original pilot license before issuing a pilot license.
  (i) The board, after notice and hearing, may refuse to issue a pilot license or may suspend or revoke the license issued to a pilot if that person has been convicted of a violation of Section 23152 or 23153 of the Vehicle Code, or Section 655. A conviction after a plea of nolo contendere is a conviction within the meaning of this section.
