If I got into an accident, how long would it stay on my record?
Answer : Any accident that involves a police report and claims you are at fault is automatically reported to the Department of Motor Vehicles. If you, or any one person has over $750 in damages or if a death is involved, then the DMV will include that in your record and will remain there for over 3 years. Insurance companies will take this information into account when determing the rates you should pay for your policy.
Obviously, it’s in your best interest to keep a clean driving record. So drive safe folks.
