Answer 1

You have a right to see your own records. Give them a call and they will advise you. They won't give you any info on the phone.

Answer 2

I live in Va and you can drive through a window, like fast food, and pay 8-10 bucks for you Driver's abstract.  The DUI stays on for at least 6 years, probably 10...

Just go to nearest Department of motor vehicles or the website.

The abstracts police get are since you were driving..offenses listed I mean..

The ones employers have access to only show general offenses for a certain amount of years, similar to one that you would get if paid for it.  For example, In VA a fail to yield would get you 4 negative points and stay on your record 4 years, each point relative to one year.  Reckless driving stays on 6 years and totals 6 negative points and so on.  After the years have passed they disappear from your general abstract for insurance agencies, etc. being able to acquire info.

Answer 3

Depends on what state your are in. In PA we can go to our DMV website and order a driver history and this shows up the date we got a record and what the record is.

Call you DMV they can tell you what you need to do.

Answer 4

Go to your local DMV and ask for a copy of your record. There will probably be a small fee for this.
