Public records include information about a driver and their drivers record. This may consist of parking tickets, citations for running through a stop sign or red light. The report may include more serious infractions or criminal offenses like reckless driving and points on your license.
The state offers two types of record requests, a 3-year record and a driver abstract. The 3-year record contained basic details of every item going back three years. However, the abstract is a complete driver history report with everything.
These records will include criminal offenses such as DUIs, reckless driving, driving without a license, vehicular homicide, fleeing the scene of a crime, and also evading police. Your driving history will also include minor infractions and citations for speeding, parking tickets, illegal U-turns, non-moving violations, car registration with a passed expiration date, traffic accidents, and other moving violations.
