A driving record is a document that contains a person’s history of traffic violations and accidents. It can be used by insurance companies to determine a person’s risk level and set their rates, by employers to screen job applicants, and by law enforcement to track down traffic offenders.
There are a few different ways to check someone’s driving record. The most common way is to request a copy from the state’s Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). You can also request a copy from the National Driver Register (NDR), which is a database of driving records from all 50 states.
