Your driving record is something that follows you from the day you get your license until the day you hang up your keys. And it's something that can have an impact on different aspects of your life.
It's a good idea to aim to have a clean driving record. It signals to car insurance companies that you're a responsible and safe driver. This pays off for you since it leads to getting better car insurance rates.
But what's considered a clean driving record? If you get any kind of ticket, do you automatically not have a clean driving record anymore?
Here's what you need to know about having a clean driving record:
Your driving record is a public record of your driving history. Remember, from the moment you get your license, you have a driving record.
On your driving record you can find things like:
· Driving license status
· License classifications
· License points
· Traffic accidents
· Moving violations(违反) and fines
· Defensive driving classes taken
So you have a driving record. But what's the distinction between that and a clean driving record?
A clean driving record means your driving history is free of any accidents, moving violations, or points. But don't let this definition scare you off. All insurance companies have different rules and definitions of a clean driving record. Some insurance companies overlook minor moving violations. So if you have a single speeding ticket or some other relatively minor offense that usually doesn't prevent you from having a clean driving record.
