What a driving history report shows

  • Your license class, status, restrictions and endorsements
  • Convictions for moving violations, with their dates
  • Suspensions and revocations
  • Crashes and points, in the states that record them

Driving history report, driver history report and driver history record are the names some states use. Employers and insurers call the same document a motor vehicle report (MVR).

How far back it goes

That depends on the version. The standard report covers three years in most states. Longer versions cover seven or ten years, and a complete report shows everything the state still holds. See how far back a driving record goes.

How long each entry stays is set by the state: a few years for an ordinary ticket, and much longer for a DUI.

Who asks for one

  • Employers hiring for a job that involves driving
  • Insurers, when they price or renew a policy
  • Courts, for a ticket or a license hearing
  • Volunteer groups and schools that let you drive for them

Driving history or claims history

Your driving history comes from the state and lists violations. Your claims history comes from an insurance database and lists claims. Insurers read both. See CLUE report or driving record.

Pick the state that issued your license, fill in one short form and sign the consent. When ordering opens, we will request your report from the state and email it to you as a PDF. The price is $34.95 in most states, with the state's fee included.

Questions about driving history reports

Is a driving history report the same as an MVR?

Yes. Both are names for the driving record your state keeps on you.

Does it show accidents?

In the states that record crashes on the driving record, yes. Some states list only crashes where you were ticketed or found at fault.

Does it show tickets from other states?

Usually. Most states report convictions to the state that issued your license, which adds them to your record.
