What DUI records are
DUI (driving under the influence) and DWI (driving while intoxicated or impaired) are the names states use for impaired-driving offenses; some use OUI or OWI instead. A DUI usually creates two kinds of record: a criminal court case, and a separate license record kept by the state that licenses the driver. This search covers available court records, not the state license record.
What a DUI court record may include
Sentencing details can include probation, education classes, ignition interlock requirements, or license consequences, depending on the state and the outcome.
- Charge and degree, such as a first offense or an aggravated DUI
- Arrest and filing dates
- Court and case number
- Plea, disposition, and sentence, where recorded
Reading DUI results
A DUI arrest can end in a conviction, be reduced to a lesser offense such as reckless driving, or be dismissed, so always look at the final disposition. States also set look-back periods that decide how long an earlier DUI counts toward penalties for a new one, and those periods vary widely.
Questions
Before you search
- What is the difference between DUI and DWI?
- It depends on the state. Some use the terms interchangeably; others use them for different levels of offense. Both refer to impaired-driving charges.
- How long does a DUI stay on record?
- A DUI conviction generally remains in court records unless it is expunged or sealed, which some states allow and others do not. License records follow separate state rules.
- Will a DUI appear if the charge was reduced?
- The court record usually shows the original charge and the amended charge or outcome, where that information is available.
- Is this the same as an official driving record?
- No. An official driving record comes from the state agency that licenses drivers. This search organizes available court records and is not an official driving record.
