NEVER make anything up. If you get a copy of your driving record ($5 or so from my DMV) it will probaly have all the info you need. If that doesn't work, te best thing is to be honest and state on the app that you dont remember the soecif details. Making something up on an app can be the kiss of deth later in your career.

Now if I were to pull up a driving record in one state, will it show tickets in other states or would I have to contact that state's DMV?

Depends on the state and the infraction. (More minor, probably not. Alcohol related, absolutely.) I never just had a problem putting "approx Nov 2002, Speeding 60/55. Podunk, ID"

That is what I did, and would recommend. The last ticket I got was in 2000, but couldn't remember anything else, so I just put down some very general info. It didn't even show up in the driving record from my state, so I figure if anything I was more conservative. BTW, I hear Podunk, ID is nice this time of year.

Hi!

I live in WI, and in WI, the driver record shows all the citations (plus accidents, even if they're not your fault!!!) for the past 5 years, unless it's an alchohol-related infraction, then it's at least 10 years.

I have lived in multiple states, and have multiple tickets (no alchohol-related ones) that are so old and/or old and not from WI, that don't show on my record.

I don't know the details/years, etc. on these old tickets.

I read, several places, that these citations CAN be found somehow.

I can't access them, so what should I do?
