Clearing a Record
Unless the information on your driving record is erroneous or inaccurate, the only way to permanently clear your driving record is to wait for the statute of limitations to take effect and the negative items will automatically be removed.Anyone with a bad driving record would love to be able to clear their record. Poor driving records can often mean higher insurance premiums and difficulty getting certain jobs. So it’s understandable that you would want to clear your driving record.
The first thing you can do to keep your driving record clear is to attend traffic school if you receive a moving violation or other minor traffic offense. Most states will dismiss a minor citation if you attend traffic school, so it will never actually appear on your driving record.
If you already have negative items on your driving record, or if you are otherwise ineligible for traffic school, there are only two ways to have that information removed.
- Appeal to the DMV if any items are erroneous or inaccurate, but you will have a heavy burden of proof in making your case.
- Wait for the statute of limitations to expire. Minor traffic offenses are usually removed from your driving record in three years, while major violations such as DUI can remain for up to ten years. Once that time has expired, your driving record will be cleared of that offense.
