Florida Driving Records

Yes, we are approved by the Florida DHSMV as a private vendor for driving records. We access the same database that law enforcement agencies, insurance companies, and employers use to view driving records.

Similar to how you should view your credit report on a regular basis, you should also view your driving record. You want to make sure there are no errors or mistakes on the driving record that can cause your license to be suspended, issues with your employer, or result in increased insurance premiums.

Once your order is placed, you should receive your record within a few minutes. We will email the driving record to you and you will also be able to download it from your account.

If you are requesting your own record and you select the Driver's Privacy Protection Act ("DPPA") exemption as such, then your personal information such as your name and address will be on your Florida driving record. If requesting the record of someone else, then the personal information will not be on the driving record. However, the driver's license number will be listed on the record.

The 3-year driving record includes any recorded driving violations, points, restrictions, accidents and open suspensions over the last 3 years. If you want to check on recent driving incidents, a 3-year driving record will likely be your best option. A 7-year driving record is similar, but includes recorded driving incidents over the past 7 years. A complete driving record will include recorded driving incidents over the past 11 years including closed suspensions and traffic school completions.

A clean driving record means that you don't have any moving violations (aka speeding tickets), points, or accidents listed. If you do have violations from the past 3-10 years, this will show up on your record. It's important to have a clean driving record as some employers and insurance companies will check your driving record.

Once your order is placed, you should receive your driving record within a few minutes. We will email the driving record to you and you will also be able to download it from your account.

If you don't have a clean driving record, you can consider going to traffic school and completing a DSHMV-approved Basic Driver Improvement Course. This course can help remove points from traffic violations on your record. Contact the court within 30 days of receiving your traffic ticket to let them know you'll be completing a Florida BDI course to clear your record.

A speeding ticket in Florida will result in points being listed on your driving record (although the number of points applied to your license depends on the severity of the violation). Points stay on your license for 3 years in Florida. While you can't remove a ticket from your driving record, you can take a Basic Driver Improvement Course to reduce the number of points reflected on your record. This helps you avoid higher auto insurance rates and the possibility of a license suspension.

In Florida, a non-contested ticket (aka you pay the fine and don't dispute it) may show up on your driving record within 30-60 days after it's been paid. If it's a contested ticket (you dispute it), it could take several months before the ticket shows up on your record if you lose the dispute.

You can easily get a copy of your driving record online through DriveSafeToday. DriveSafeToday provides an official Florida DHSMV Authorized Driving Record which is sent instantly to you via email and available to download.

Your Florida driving record is an overview of any recorded driving incidents. So what does a driving record show exactly? It depends on the length of the driving record. A 3-year driving record includes recorded activity from the past three years, including points, violations, restrictions, accidents, and open suspensions. A 7-year driving record includes the same information but for the past seven years. A complete driving record covers recorded activity from the past 11 years. In addition to points, violations, restrictions, accidents, and open suspensions, you can also see closed suspensions and traffic school completions.

Other states - except for Georgia, Massachusetts, Michigan, Tennessee and Wisconsin - can obtain a copy of your previous state's driving record. And although violations on your old driving record may not show up on your new driving record in a different state, employers and insurance companies will likely check your previous record if they see that you recently got a new one.

You can obtain a certified copy of your Florida DHSMV Authorized Driving Record instantly by purchasing one of DriveSafeToday's three options: 3-year, 7-year, or Complete Driving Record. You can also check for errors on your driving record and notify the Florida DMV if you spot any inaccuracies.

Your driving record will include how many points you have on your Florida driver's license so order a copy of this record to check the number. Points on your driver's license last three years, although you can go to traffic school to prevent more points from being added.

Car insurance companies typically have a lookback period on your driving record from three to five years (although it can be longer). They use this information to determine your insurance rates. A poor driving record can impact your auto insurance rates negatively. For more information, it's best to contact your insurance company.

An MVR (Motor Vehicle Record) and a driving record are the same things. It's a public record of your recorded driving incidents and may include items like accidents, speeding tickets, and points on your driver's license.
