With more and more people flocking toward the Florida sun, especially during the snowy months up north, it's more important than ever to take a look at your own personal driving record . Even if you live in the Sunshine State only part of the year, accessing your Florida driving record online can be a lifesaver. In fact, it's even more imperative for you to know what's going on during the months you aren't here. You can quickly find out if someone is driving on your license or if you have any tickets you may have forgotten during your travels. By knowing your driving history in the state of Florida, you can deal with (or argue against) any issues that come up before you are surprised with it by the police.
What's On My Driving Record?
Floridians have the option to choose a three year, seven year, or complete driving history. All of the histories tell the same information; the only difference is how far back you want to go. On your driving records, you can expect to see:
- Suspensions and Revocations – This simply lets you know what the status of the license has been for the number of years you choose to see. It'll tell why the license was suspended or revoked and also where the status currently stands. A D-6 suspension, also known as a failure to comply, however, only stays on your record for one year. Once the year has passed, it will only show up on the complete history.
- License Issue Date – This tells when your received your license, how long it is currently valid, and when you took (and passed) the driving exam. It also tells if you have taken any kind of driver's education courses, including both ones that were court ordered and ones you simply decided to take on your own.
- Accident Report – Unlike some other states, Florida only lists the traffic accidents for which you were deemed to be guilty. The guilty verdict could have come from your own admission, the court, an insurance agent or the officer on site. For example, if you were issued a ticket at the scene of the accident, you are considered to be guilty in regards to your driving history.
- Traffic Violations – The driving record will list any violations on your license, going back the length of time you choose. It will have any pending tickets, any fines that have already been paid, and any other issues or citations you need to know about.
