Driving Records in Kentucky
Online Driving Records Vs. Certified Driving Records
There are two ways to order a driving record, also known as a Motor Vehicle Record (MVR), online. Independent vendors offer expedited services online or you can submit a request for driving history through the state site. It is a public record that you can easily obtain with info on you or another driver.

Order The Driving Record Of Another Individual Through The State
Visit The Kentucky Driver History Record System online. Provide valid credit/debit card info, e-mail address, driver name and license number. The three-year driving record will be available for you to download and print for the two weeks following your submission.
Reasons To Order A Driver Record
Whether your employer or an auto insurance company wants to review your driving history, or if you want to check if your drivers license is suspended or revoked, a driving record offers valuable information. Most commonly, motorists run a driving record to:
- Check drivers license status and license suspension
- Check drivers license points and violation codes
- Check traffic tickets, violations and fines
- Check auto accidents
- Check driver license classification and endorsements
How Driving History Affects Auto Insurance Rates
Car insurance companies factor in driving history when determining your car insurance premium. If your driving record reflects any traffic tickets, auto accidents, DUI or DWI convictions, an insurance agent could consider you a high-risk driver. The higher the risk, the higher the rate.
