I live in Indianapolis, Indiana and I just want to know how long does a DUI stay on your driving record in my state?

The official driving record in Indiana includes information on:

* Issued tickets both in Indiana and other states that are part of their reporting network.
* Accidents and/or ticket for which the motorist failed to provide proof of financial responsibility.
* Major offenses like as driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs (DUI) or being a habitual traffic violator (HTV).

It looks like that according to Indiana’s Bureau of Motor Vehicles that while points for traffic infractions will only stay active on your motor vehicle record (MVR) for two years, that traffic offenses and serious vehicular offenses, such as a DUI, continually stay on your record. You can check with the IN Bureau of Motor Vehicles to verify this information.

A: First time purchasers of SR22 insurance often find it difficult to find a company that will insure hem. One of the reasons for this is that people who must file he SR22 form are extremely high risk, and many companies are not willing to assume that kind of risk.

However, many companies are. Start looking for companies which advertise themselves as high risk. Such companies charge more, but they’re also used to dealing with high risk drivers, and you’ll find it very hard to get turned down if you go to one of them.

Not to say it isn’t possible to get turned down for SR22 insurance by a high risk specialist company. Such things do occasionally happen, usually to people who were high risk before their SR22s. If this is the case, instead join the Indiana assigned risk pool, where you will definitely be insured with a random assigned company, but it will cost you.
