How long does a DUI stay on your driving record in CT?

I received a DUI last weekend in Connecticut. I understand the severity of the incident, but I’m hoping that it won’t stay on my driving record for too long. How long will my DUI remain on my driving record if I live in Connecticut?

It’s good that you’ve taken responsibility for your actions and understand the severity of your charge. A DUI stays on your driving record in
Connecticut
for 10 years.
In addition, you’ll receive points on your license, which will remain for two years. If you get more than 10 points in a two-year period, you may face license suspension.
Along with the stigma and financial burden, other penalties of a DUI include:
  • Fines of $500 to $1,000
  • License suspension for 45 days
  • Up to six months in jail
  • One year of driving with an ignition interlock system
If you have a DUI on your driving record, you will almost certainly experience a rise in your car insurance premium. But you can shop around on the
