Back in 2005, I got 2 speeding tickets, & I paid them off. 2007 is almost over. Is my driving record still bad or is it clear? Many people tell me my driving record will follow me for 7-10 yrs. & others say that after 1 yr. I'll be fine & have all my merits back. I'm trying to get a driving job.

Speeding tix take 3 years to get cleared off your record. Even if you pay them. Why didnt you go to driving school? You could of gotten one erased right away if you did.

There are many variables in your question. Some states would clear you at a year, some at three years, some at five, and some at seven. It depends on what the tickets were for, how many points they were for and how they were resolved. Generally if you paid the fine for a minor infraction such as 5 mph over the limit they are gone in a year. Going 30 mph over the limit usually requires a retraining course and more time to get off your record. Honesty is the best policy. Tell your prospective employer what the tickets were for, how long ago you got them and the current disposition. They will tell you up front if you qualify...

It really depends up on the state where you gt the tickets. Your insurance company can go back as far as they want, but some states remove the violations if you do certain things, such as going to traffic school. Where I live, by going to traffic school you can actually remove points from your driving records; they do not appear on any record no matter how far back the insurance company goes.

It depends on the state, but in California, most moving violations stay on your record for 37 months. DUIs are different, they stay on there much longer. You need to get this information from your state's DMV, not a bunch of points-hungry no-clue answerers.

For insurance purposes, 3-5yrs depending on the company. As for your MVR, that depends on your state.
