    Depending on the company, and their insurance. It can range from 3-10 years.

    Of course, the severity of the charges will play a factor.

    Don't know where your from but in Oklahoma, I can go to any tag agency, pay a fee, and get a copy of my MVR for the last 3 years.
    You can also go to the blue section of your phone book, look in the DPS section, and somewhere in there you'll find driver's licensing and they can direct you to the proper place. Good luck.

    i have one for speeding, one for bumping into somebody's car (no injuries), and one for not stopping at a stop sign (i did stop enough to see that there was no cars, just not a full 0-momentum stop)

    Is that serious enough to impedede me getting a job?
