We obtain Driving Records through each states department of motor vehicles (DMV). Most states report a 3 to 5 year driving record search history and all states return results instantly except Alaska, Hawaii, Oregon and Pennsylvania. The price ranges between $20 to $30 per state, however we offer volume discount pricing and package discounts when you bundle multiple services together.
