How can I look up my driving tickets?

I was shopping around for car insurance, but the quotes I’m getting back are all sky high. My dad told me to check my record to see what is on it. How can I check for tickets on my driving record?

Dads are full of wisdom, and in this case, he’s right. If you can’t find
cheap car insurance
, your record may be to blame.
To look up your driving tickets, contact the DMV. The quickest way to get a copy of your driving record will be to go to a local branch and request it in person. Take a number, wait in line, and then explain to the clerk why you’re there. Note that you may need to pay a fee.
Alternatively, some states allow you to access your record online or request an electronic version through the DMV website. Just do a quick Google search to find out the process of obtaining your driving record in your state. You will likely have to pay a fee for a digital copy, as well.
