Driver History Record and Clearance Letter

​​ ​​​​​​​​DRIVING HISTORY​ RECORDS

​All Kentucky driver’s license holders have a driving history record. The record contains identifying information, any licenses that have been issued to you, any traffic conviction information, and any administrative entries regarding your driving privileges. ​
  • ​Anyone may obtain a Three-Year Driving History Record (DHR); however, it contains no personal information such as an address, social security number, and description.

  • ​A Full Driving History Record (DHR) contains identifying information, licenses issued to you, traffic conviction information, administrative entries regarding your driving privileges, all CDL-related requirements, and other information. To obtain a full DHR on someone other than yourself, you must have a notarized release from the driver or a subpoena.
