Does anyone know.?.?.?.

Not sure where to put this..... admin, feel free to move if I am posting in the wrong place...

For California only.
I know that most violations/tickets/points "age off" the driver history report after 3 years. I also know that for a CDL holder, it is 5. I have violations on my report that predate the date my license went commercial, so according to California DMV, those violations will stay on my record for 5 years, even though my license was not yet commercial and did not occur in a commercial vehicle. Does the 3/5 year clock start ticking on the violation date or the conviction date?

 

My CA h6(history report) shows 1.5 points, and I pulled it about 2 weeks ago on the advice of my instructors at driving school

 

Thanks... this saves me a 90 minute phone call on hold for a 30 second answer.. my instructors at driving school advised that I call DMV's mandatory actions unit to ask that points be removed since they don't always do so automatically . The advice was to call biannually during my birth month.

They also advised that I pull my own history and DAC reports periodically...
