Reader’s question:

Can I get a copy of my Georgia driving record if I go to the local Georgia Department of Motor Vehicles? Will they be able to get my traffic tickets from my previous residence from a different state 2 years ago?

Good question.

The Georgia DMV does not allow you to obtain a copy of your driving record. But you may be able to download a non certified copy of your driving record through the DDS website or you may go to the DDS customer service center.

You will be needing your driver’s license number, a date and birth and a password where you can request online before you can download the information you need. There is also a fee that you will need to pay. It is $5 for 3 year record and $7 for a 7 year record. Remember that it is only a non certified copy of your driving history.

Your Georgia driving record can also be purchased in person at the DDS customer service center with proper identification. You also have the option to send a request through mail. You will need to submit a notarized letter requesting either the 3 or 7 years of your driving history and provide other information so the DDS can process your request.

You can call DDS to get more information if you want to use this option.

Goodluck!
