A driver’s driving record is information maintained in a database controlled by a state’s department of public safety, department of motor vehicles, or similar department or agency. The driver’s driving record generally includes the driver’s name, date of birth, address, license status, list of all accidents, and list of all moving violations on record.
A driver may want to request their driving record to prove to a court the driver is eligible for a driving safety or defensive driving course; to confirm that penalty points on a driver’s license have been removed after completing a driving safety or defensive driving course; or to persuade an insurance company to give the driver a better rate on insurance premiums.
In Wyoming, a driver's driving record is maintained by the Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT). This record includes personal information such as the driver's name, date of birth, address, and license status, as well as their driving history, including all accidents and moving violations. Drivers in Wyoming can request a copy of their driving record for various reasons, such as providing proof of eligibility for a driving safety or defensive driving course, verifying the removal of penalty points from their license after completing such a course, or negotiating better insurance premium rates. To obtain their driving record, drivers can request it online, by mail, or in person at a WYDOT office. The process may involve a fee and require the driver to provide identification and other necessary details to facilitate the request.
