Top Drivers Privacy Protection Act

In Tennessee, you or another authorized individual can obtain your three-year driving record, also called your motor vehicle record (MVR). Thanks to the Drivers Privacy Protection Act, the three-year driving record will not include any personal information such as your date of birth, Social Security number, or address.

Top Check Your Driver's License Status

It's important to check out your driving record from time to time to make sure there are no inaccuracies. Incorrect information could cause your insurance rates to increase or cost you a particular job opportunity. Insurance companies and employers alike look at your driving record for decisions about your rates and employment.

Top Requests and Fees

You can request your driving record from the Tennessee Department of Safety (TOS) through the mail or in person. The TOS will need your name, date of birth, and driver license number.

If you send another person to obtain your driving record, you must send a notarized statement of permission.

If you wish to obtain your driving record by mail, send the Driver Data Information Request and fees to:

• Tennessee Department of Safety

• 1150 Foster Ave.

• Nashville, TN 37210

The fee is $5 per record. Make all checks or money orders payable to the Tennessee Department of Safety.

Third-party businesses, such as the one at the top of this page, also offer services where you can readily order a copy of your driving record.
