A Driving Record Follows You
No, your driving record does not clear if you register your car in a different state. Your driving record details your driving history and is independent from the different vehicles you register, and follows you wherever you go.
Many people confuse driving records with car registrations and vehicle records. Driving records contain pertinent details about your driving history, such as moving violations, accidents, convictions, revocations and suspensions, regardless of what car you owned or were driving at the time of the infraction. By contrast, car registrations merely register a particular car in a particular state and do not affect your driving history.
When Will My Record Clear?
The only time information clears from your driving record is when the item exceeds the statute of limitations, which is commonly three years for minor infractions and up to ten years for major convictions like DUIs. In rare cases, an item may be cleared from your driving record if you can prove it is inaccurate. And keep in mind, states today use the same computer system to maintain driving records, so moving from state-to-state isn’t going to clear your driving record.
If you’d like to learn what’s on your driving record, you can order a copy of your driving record today. Obtaining your driving record online is quick and convenient.
