However, convictions related to alcohol or other serious offenses stay on your record for 55 years. Certified copies cost $12. Uncertified copies are $7, or $5 if you request them online.
Certified driving records are official copies used by law enforcement, government agencies and courts for official purposes. They typically contain an official stamp or seal. Uncertified driving records are for informational purposes only and cannot be used for official business.
