Online Driving Records Vs. Certified Driving Records

Your Minnesota driving record, or Motor Vehicle Record (MVR), offers driving history details. It is a public record that you can easily obtain online through independent vendors. Or you can go through the Minnesota DPS to obtain a certified copy in person or by mail.

Order Your Own Driver Abstract Through The MN DPS

To order your own driving record copy, complete a DVS Records Request and visit a Minnesota DPS office with proper fees and identification. Be sure you inform the clerk if you want a certified driving record. You can also submit a request by mail by sending a completed form and fees to:

• Driver and Vehicle Services

• Records Unit

• 445 Minnesota Street, Suite 161

• St. Paul, MN 55101-5161

Order The Driving Record Of Another Individual Through The MN DPS

If you want to obtain the driving record of someone else, you must attach that person's written consent to your completed DVS Records Request form. You can submit your request in person at a Minnesota DPS office or mail the form, consent and proper fees to the address above.

Reasons To Order A Minnesota Driver Record

If your employer or an auto insurance company wants to review your driving history, or if you want to check the status of your drivers license (whether you have a revoked or suspended license), 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.
